Step-by-Step Reconstitution Protocol

1

Gather your equipment

You will need: one vial of Cagri-Reta 10mg (lyophilised), bacteriostatic water (BAC water), a sterile syringe and needle, an alcohol swab, and a clean work surface. Ensure all equipment is sterile.

2

Calculate your target concentration

The standard reconstitution for Cagri-Reta 10mg is to add 2.0 mL of bacteriostatic water, yielding a concentration of 5000 mcg/mL. Use our peptide calculator to adjust for different doses.

3

Clean the vial stopper

Wipe the rubber stopper of the Cagri-Reta vial with an alcohol swab. Allow to air-dry for 10–15 seconds before inserting the needle.

4

Draw and inject the bacteriostatic water

Draw 2.0 mL of bacteriostatic water into the syringe. Insert the needle into the Cagri-Reta vial and inject the BAC water slowly against the inner glass wall — do not inject directly onto the lyophilised powder. This prevents foaming and peptide degradation.

5

Dissolve the peptide

Gently swirl the vial until the lyophilised powder is fully dissolved. Do not shake or vortex. Cagri-Reta should dissolve within 30–60 seconds. The solution should be clear — if it appears cloudy, check your BAC water is sterile and at room temperature.

6

Label and store

Label the vial with the reconstitution date and concentration. Store lyophilised at −20 °C. Reconstituted: 4 °C, use within 14 days. Use within the recommended timeframe to ensure maximum peptide integrity.

Concentration Reference Table

BAC Water Added Concentration (mcg/mL) mg/mL
1 mL 10000 mcg/mL 10.0 mg/mL
2.0 mL (recommended) 5000 mcg/mL 5.0 mg/mL
4.0 mL 2500 mcg/mL 2.50 mg/mL
