Write the reconstitution date and the concentration on the vial. Not on a note, on the vial. Every account here of a dosing error involving the wrong concentration involves a vial with nothing written on it.
I would hold that lightly until someone with a larger sample weighs in.
Do not shake. Swirl, or leave it. Vigorous agitation introduces air and shear, and neither helps a peptide go into solution any faster than patience does.
Post #22 is the version of this I will quote in future. One addition.
Two people in this thread mean different things by foaming during reconstitution and are disagreeing about the definition while believing they are disagreeing about the facts. Worth pausing to define it.
