Newbie seeking advice, retatrutide reconstitution for dummies.

[supercut]

Hi all,
Long-time lurker here who has finally taken the plunge and recently purchased reta from UGL OZ!
I haven't received the goodies yet, but thought I could ask some questions i've had whilst waiting as everyone on here seems super supportive and informative

Bitta background - Ive been seeing reta & other peptides all over my socials for a year now. As a girl who is finally wanting to get back into the shape I used to be in, I was naturally curious but skeptic ordering from sites these "influencers" were pushing. After my own research I came across this forum! During my lurking over the past few months i've witnessed what a great community you have here; supporting, looking out for one another and taking great precautions in safe suppliers!

Anyways, i'm super excited to start this journey, but as a someone who is new to all of this I have a few questions which might be silly:
Firstly, reconstitution - I am planning to start on 1mg or possibly .5mg as I can be quite sensitive to things and figure its best to start smaller and work my way up. With 10mg reta, and 10ml BAC, how much BAC should I add? also advice on needle size and injection site is appreciated .

Assuming I add 1ml BAC and use a 100unit (1ml) needle, would I draw it to 5 units for a .5mg dose? Or should I add more BAC?

Also curious where get needles haha, as someone who has never self-injected and can be nervous - the smaller the needle the better haha.

Any and all advice is appreciated thank you!! eg. recommended dosing times (night or morning), and side effects to be expected.
i know there are plenty of sites out there with advice on this but it is for ease of mind for me to hear first-hand from people who are experienced with this!

One last thing; I am currently on ADHD medication and am yet to find research on whether this will interact. If anyone on ADHD meds has taken reta id love to hear your experience!

Thank you all!!!!!

Hi

You are spot on with your reconstitution, seeing as Reta is a subq injection. I’d recommend a 32g x 6mm syringe pack from Amazon. Provided you wait 10 minutes from taking your Reta out of the fridge you shouldn’t feel a thing. The starting dose of .5mg is great idea

You can experience nausea from adjusting to your dose and from my experience (using mounjaro) so different glp1 the feeling of nausea would kick in the morning after injection atleast for me. At .5mg on Reta it is unlikely you would experience that at all.

You can take it daily, weekly, biweekly it’s upto you provided your total volume is .5mg for the week. If you want more frequent injections add more bac water as it’s too hard to get an accurate measurement then. You can do this for more stable levels but glp1s are mostly fine taking them once a week.

You can add 2mls of BAC and draw to 10 units (0.1ml) to still give you 0.5mg.

I find this gives you a bit more of an accurate dose, as you'll see 5 units on an insulin syringe is a tiny amount.

It also depends on what you are trying to get out of it as well, if you need the appetite suppression a bigger single dose seems to work best but if you just want to curb it so you make better choices and still hit your nutritional needs smaller more frequent doses, either every second day or twice per week are common.

welcome to the EVO family @supercut good to see your share and to start you should post pics of your retatrutide TD
are you using anything else sister?

have you checked this post?
https://www.evolutionary.org/forums/threads/how-to-mix-peptides.107113/

Start a simple log before you pin anything so the EVO family can actually guide you and keep you comfortable on retatrutide, because without your day to day food, weight trend, sleep, steps, and side effects we are guessing.
Post your starting weight, goal, daily calories and protein, steps or cardio, sleep, and what ADHD med and dose you use, then update weekly with weight and how you feel so we can dial your retatrutide dose safely. 15min of your time to really dial in.


HOW-TO LOG?

Why is a Log Journal important?

• Doing a log will actually help you way more than just dropping random updates. When you lay it all out week by week you start to see patterns in your body that you won’t catch otherwise.
• Other guys here run logs all the time and there’s no privacy issue, nobody is asking for your name or anything personal, it is just training, diet, and how the compound feels.
• The feedback you get is also way better because people can follow along and spot things you might miss. It also helps the next guy who is thinking about running the same compound so you are giving back while you learn.
• Even if you think you might not stick with it, just starting the log makes it easier to come back and add quick notes. That way you get more out of what you are running instead of keeping it all in your head.

To really guide you we need more info from you:

• Please share your diet, training, cardio, sleep, supplements etc log with us in a NEW thread, full log journal so our guidance is based on facts you provide.
• It will take 15-20 minutes max.
• We have 100s of years of experience between us, so you need to post a LOG Journal with your stats (weight,height,age, years training, cycle history) diet, training, cardio, supplement, sleep details. If you don't log what you eat or train now, open NOTES on phone and start recording it there and paste here. Very easy.
• Please post a Log Journal asap for us

There are peptide calculator websites which will help you figure out the correct reconstitution. Always make sure you're refrigerating both before and after with peptides. And make sure you don't damage them by being aggressive when you mix them.

When i started reta, i would get a tiny bit of nausea the next day. I injected reta friday mornings so i had the weekend incase i had nausea.

I buy my 30g 8mm needles on amazon as well. As @jenkemj said, 32g needles would be your best bet.

You can realistically inject anywhere you can pinch a little fat, but most do abdomen.

I suggest starting a log like @LevButlerov suggested, as itll teally help you dial in everything, and itll help everyone give solid advice instead of guessing.

in my opinion best way to get needles is just from a needle exchange. they’re free and will supply you with swabs and can give some demo’s on how to inject subq. buying online is also a great option though, that’s just personally where I get mine

The original studies were with 10's of thousands of people. A few would have been. Also see if there's an online 'interaction' pdf

Definitely start slow, the first four to six weeks. Your body needs to get used to it and you got to get used to it. It's going to hit you very differently than other things in terms of the way it makes you approach food.

bros reta good stuff. but with peptides no real strategy that is iron clad. you can do blueprint that is smart. start 1-2mgs and go from there

 

[ROIDDERS]

Definitely time for a log. There is no black and white answer to any of these questions. It's all very relative to the individual.
