Run your injections cleanly — the checklist.
A no-nonsense, harm-reduction checklist for doing this properly: what to have ready, sterile technique, reconstitution, dosing, rotation, and tracking. Free to keep. Not medical advice.

Free · no spam · the checklist stays free either way.
Before you start — have these ready
- A clean, well-lit surface and washed hands.
- Alcohol swabs, and a proper sharps container (never the trash).
- The right needles: a wider gauge to draw, a finer one to inject.
- Bacteriostatic water if you are reconstituting a powder.
- A plan: know your compound, your concentration, and your schedule before the needle is out.
Sterile technique, every time
- Wash hands; swab the vial stopper and the injection site; let both dry.
- A fresh, sharp needle for every single injection — never reuse, never share.
- Draw with one needle, swap to a fresh one to inject if the draw needle dulled.
- Aspirate before an IM injection if you were taught to; inject slowly and smoothly.
Reconstitution & storage
- Run the water gently down the vial wall; swirl to dissolve, never shake.
- Label every reconstituted vial with the date and concentration the moment you mix it.
- Refrigerate reconstituted peptides; protect from light; never freeze the solution.
Dosing without guesswork
- Know your concentration (mg/mL), then let the calculator give you exact syringe units.
- Double-check the decimal — most dosing mistakes are a misplaced point.
- Measure twice, inject once.
Rotation, inventory & tracking
- Rotate injection sites and give each one time to recover — track where you last went.
- Track each vial against your dosing so you reorder before you run dry, and watch expiry.
- Log every dose, and trend your bloodwork over time next to the protocol that produced it.
Know when something is wrong
- A little soreness or a small bump can be normal.
- Spreading redness or warmth, significant swelling, fever, or severe pain are not — seek medical care.
- When in doubt, ask a professional. This is logistics, not a substitute for one.
