Hi,
I can only buy 5000 IU HCG (pregnyl) i my country. After you dissolve HCG into bacteriostatic water, is it ok to keep into insulin syringe for 1 month e.g? Use the same syringe, just to change needle before every injection? I read somewhere that its not very sterile to keep HCG into plastic syringe.
....
]It is not recommended to store any injectable product in a drawn up syringe as it is not a sealed container and presents sterility issues. Not only that but the freezing/thawing of polypropylene (the type of plastic syringes are made of) can cause leeching of the plastic into solution and further degradation of many different active/inactive ingredients within the injectable. This is why 99% of injectable drugs come in borosilicate glass vials.
