How long can you keep an oil in a syringe for ? was created by Lex
Hi guys.
Just need some advice. How long can you keep oil in a syringe and store it for ? I have a few sust amps on hand. I want to do 0.5ml mon/weds/fri. Would it be ok to leave 0.5 loaded in a syringe for 2/3 days ? I havent tried it before so i want to know, usually in the past i would just use an entire amp at a time.

People travel with syringes prefilled.
I don't like the idea personally, I think I would rather buy sterile multi-use vials, and crack a few amps and transfer them there, with a new needle per amp emptied.

I leave oil based AAS in a syringe for up to a week all the time and travel with pre-filled syringes very often as well. I have the following concerns about this practise though.
The plastic from the syringe leaching into the solution is a major health concern.
The silicone oil used to lubricate the syringe plunger absorbing into the solution in larger quantities over a longer duration of exposure in the syringe.
Higher risk of microbial contamination.

Hi admin. Can you physically see the plastic leaking ? Or does it get disolved ? I am a bit cornered about that.
The max i would be pre filling in a syringe is 0.5/1ml

The amount in the syringe will be irrelevant, it's the fact that solvents are in the syringe for a few days and starting to dissolve plastic and rubber.

You can't see it as it happens on a molecular level. If you store your gear in the syringe a few times it will be of little concern. I do it weekly for years on end which becomes a real long term health hazard and something that bothers me.
Container leaching is one of the main hurdles to overcome when pharmaceutical companies develop parenteral formulations. Even glass vials decompose, especially in water based formulations, so there are different types of glass vials you can get as well as various coatings. Some drugs react to rubber stoppers, so they require coatings on the rubber as well.
I don't want to sound like an alarmist, but just be aware of these things.

You can buy sterile vials on Amazon. You won't find any in SA pharmacies.

If I were in your shoes I would preload a syringe. I was just pointing out the long term risks, but I still preload syringes myself because I have not found a practical alternative yet.Hi empire. So im a bit confused i dont know wether to preload the syringes or not ?

Cool thanks admin.
also side note dont know if it natters but im using the shree venkatesh sust, im not sure what carrier oil they use but i read up online that some carrier oils affect the deterioration of the syringe faster than others. But ja regardless i dont have much of a choice but to preload the 0.5.
Thanks guys for the feedback

375mg of test is quite high unless you are 120kg, also it's a blend of esters just inject once a week. Make your life simple. 250mg once a week if you are are 80-100kgs doing sports trt is more than enough. Don't over complicate it.

Hi empire
I am 118 at the moment.
I finished the cycle you adviced of npp test and masteron. I used all prop. Pinned 3X a week. I ended the cycle around 2 weeks ago or just more than that.. i was 121 but had the flu. Now floating around 117/118.
I plan on doing 375mg of sust from now till the new year. Ill throw in proviron and winstrol in December and drop my test dose slightly to 300mg at that point.
