ATTENTION: THE PRODUCT DESCRIBED IN THIS ARTICLE IS NO LONGER IN PRODUCTION—THERE ARE BETTER ALTERNATIVES AMONG THE FOLLOWING PRODUCTS:
This article refers to the brand new Growth Hormone – Somatropin 20iu per vial, how to reconstitute it and how to use it, plus some extra information. If you need to reconstitute the more classic (and perhaps more obsolete) growth hormone – somatropin 10 units, read this article: reconstituting generic HGH.
Why two types of HGH: black top and purple top
Here we quickly explain the fundamental difference between the two brand new HGH products from Farmacia Italiana Genova. One is around 97% pure (with a purple cap) and the other is around 99% pure (with a black cap). In this case, purity does not refer to the sterility, cleanliness, or quality of the product. The growth hormone produced by our body is a protein hormone composed of a sequential chain of 191 amino acids. Synthetic GH chemically reconstructs this sequence as best as possible, but it is impossible to obtain a copy that is 100% identical to that produced by the human body (or rather, it is possible, but it would collapse immediately after production). There are several methods of reconstructing synthetic growth hormone, and these methods are more or less rapid and give a final result that is more or less the same as the original. GH 20 units with a purple cap has a slightly faster production method and reconstructs 189 amino acids in sequence (comparable to generic somatropin), whileHGH 20 units with a black cap has a longer production time and reconstructs 190 amino acids in the correct sequence and is comparable, for example, to Lilly or Norditropin pharmaceutical GH. The difference for practical purposes is really minimal. If you want to have 100% human growth hormone, the only solution is to use liquid MK-677, which stimulates the self-production of GH but without precision in quantities and timing.
How to reconstitute somatropin at 20iu
The reconstitution (or reconstruction) process is very simple and, in principle, identical to that of generic somatropin at 10iu per vial. The only difference is that here we have 20iu (units) per vial, exactly double.
- Use sterile water for injections, bacteriological water, or physiological injection water as the reconstitution liquid. All of these can be purchased online or at any pharmacy or drugstore without a prescription.
- Using a syringe with a small needle, draw up 2 ml (cc) of water (sterile or similar). If you are using 100iu insulin syringes, you will need two full 1 ml syringes.
- Remove the top of the GH vial (regardless of whether it is purple or black) and disinfect the rubber top of the vial with alcohol or disinfectant.
- Insert the syringe into the rubber cap and slowly deposit the 2 ml of water into the vial (still sealed, but without the plastic cap).
- Slowly mix the water and powder (without shaking or stirring, very slowly) until the contents of the vial are a crystal-free solution.
- At this point, you have 20 units of GH ready for use in the vial.
Each unit of GH is equivalent to 10 units on an insulin syringe. So, if you want to use 2 units, for example, you need to draw up 20 units with the insulin syringe. Inject under the skin after disinfecting the area.
ALWAYS store the vial containing the reconstituted GH solution in the refrigerator.
