INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Peptide Preparation: Step-by-Step Guide
Before you begin: Wash your hands thoroughly.

Materials Needed:

• Peptide vial
• Bacteriostatic water
• Insulin syringes
• Alcohol swab

Steps:

1. Preparing the vials:

• Remove the plastic cap from both vials (the tirzepatide vial and the bacteriostatic water vial).
• Disinfect the rubber stopper of both vials with the alcohol swab.

2. Extracting the bacteriostatic water:

• Use the insulin syringe to extract 0.4mL of bacteriostatic water from its vial.

3. Mixing the peptide with water:

• Hold the peptide vial horizontally.
• Carefully and slowly inject the extracted bacteriostatic water into the peptide vial.
  • Note: It’s normal for the water to be quickly absorbed due to the vacuum in the vial.

4. Dissolving the peptide:

• Gently roll the vial between your hands to mix the peptide with the water.
• Important: Avoid shaking the vial vigorously.
• Alternatively, let the vial sit for 20 minutes to allow the peptide to fully dissolve.

5. Storage:

• Once dissolved, you can use the peptide immediately or store it in the refrigerator.
• Never freeze the peptide.

INJECTION OF TIRZEPATIDE

Before injection:

• Complete dissolution: Ensure the peptide powder has fully dissolved in the liquid, with no clumps remaining.
• Clear solution: The solution should be clear and free of visible particles.

Application of the injection:

• Subcutaneous route: The injection is applied under the skin, in a fatty area (such as the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm).
• Insulin syringe: Use an insulin syringe to extract the correct amount of tirzepatide.

Tirzepatide Dosage:

• Initial dose: Typically starts at 2.5 mg.
• Dose increases: If necessary, the dose can be increased in increments of 2.5 mg each time, provided there is no significant weight loss within a 3-4 week period and the medication is well-tolerated.
• Maximum dose: The recommended maximum dose is 15 mg.

Important Notes:

• Measured in units: The amount of tirzepatide to inject is measured in units, not milligrams.
• Follow medical advice: Always follow your doctor’s instructions regarding dosage and injection frequency.
