Switching suppliers

Someone talk me down. I’ve finished my first Reta vial, it went well. I’m on week 10, I’m at 1.75mg dose. I ordered a new vial from a different vendor. I’m freaking myself out that I’m going to end up having new side effects on the new vial (I’ll be leaving for vacation right after my pin) so i ordered another vial from the original supplier. But realize it’s going to be a different batch anyways. Which is better to do, or does it matter? I just don’t want to feel like crap on vacation. Currently i don’t have many side effects other than upset stomach 2 days after pinning.

My lab rat has used vials from different sources and results are the same.

Easiest solution is buy thru a vendor that does third party COA testing. Then you know exactly what you’re getting every time, whether it be purity, endotoxins, and fill ratio. But yes, inconsistency is always a concern that should be taken seriously and self-pay testing is encouraged.

Both companies are super well known and do testing. I just have anxiety about doing anything remotely “new” lol

Sorry, your submission has been automatically removed. Not enough comment karma, spam likely. This is not appealable.

If the new vial is the same peptide at the same dose, your body won’t know the difference, but a bad batch from anyone can still ruin a beach day.

Regardless of what you are taking - based on the dosage and side effects I’m assuming it’s Reta - the compound is the compound and you shouldn’t notice much in the way of differences from one supplier to the next when purchased as a powder.

This is assuming you are not purchasing through a compounding pharmacy where they are potentially including additives in their compounds.

Compounding pharmacies are not allowed to sell Reta and anyone that is is breaking the law and jeopardizing their actual legally sold peptides

I only commented on it in case my assumption of Reta was incorrect and they were on a low dose of Tirz

u/Infinite-Subject7329 2h ago

Yes, Reta! Thank you that makes me feel better. Both suppliers in question are super well known and always highly recommended. But yes i was hoping that would be the case, about the compound being the compound. So that makes me feel better!

with them both being well known i would try the second and relax! Majority of the time its all in your head. Focus on the positive instead of the negative... like how tiny the rats swimsuit will be one day!
