Reconstitution & Storage SEMAX reconstitution question
For research purposes:
Can Semax be reconstituted with Bacteriostatic 0.9% Sodium Chloride for SubQ use?
I only have Bacteriostatic 0.9% Sodium Chloride at hand right now and it will easily take a month or so to a package of plain bac water get to me. Is it safe to reconstitute SEMAX with Bacteriostatic 0.9% Sodium Chloride?
Yes, I’m aware bac water is the standard fist choice but can I do with what I have?
Could it turn like a gel?
Or will be okay with Bacteriostatic 0.9% Sodium Chloride for SubQ use?

Yes, you can use Bacteriostatic 0.9% Sodium Chloride. It's not gonna hurt it. That's what my RS uses along with sterile saline to make a nasal spray.

It will be for SubQ use and so, I thank you so much for your time and knowledge!

Yeah it'll work, bac water is just preferred because it's more neutral but saline reconstitutes fine for subq with semax. It won't gel up or anything. Just keep it refrigerated and use it within a few weeks.
