About to jump into my first run with a CJC 1295 + Ipamorelin 10mg blend and I want to nail down the dosing before I do anything.

I keep seeing 200mcg thrown around as the standard dose, but I can't figure out whether that means 200mcg of each peptide separately or 200mcg total of the combined blend. That distinction matters a lot and nobody seems to spell it out clearly.

My reconstitution is 3ml of bac water into the 10mg blend vial. Based on that, my friend is telling me to pull 12 units on the slin pin, which is what feels right to me too. The problem is every peptide calculator I plug the numbers into spits out 6 units instead. My best guess is those calculators are doing the math on a single peptide at a time rather than accounting for the fact that this is a pre-mixed blend with both compounds together — but I'm honestly not 100% sure that's what's happening.

Has anyone used one of these blends and can clear this up? I'm fairly confident 12 units is the correct draw but the calculators have me second-guessing myself and I'd love a straight answer from someone who's actually been through it.

The deeper I get into the peptide rabbit hole, the more I find myself wanting to learn about every aspect of the process. Lately I've been coming across a lot of talk about filtering reconstituted peptides before use, and I'm genuinely curious how many of you actually do it. For those who do — what made you start, and have you noticed any real difference? And for anyone who's been at this a while, do you think it's truly worth adding that step to your routine?

Nine pounds while still enjoying ribs during playoff games is honestly the dream scenario lol!

Appreciate you flagging this here - this kind of cross-posting between communities is exactly how these things get caught faster. I grabbed a couple vials from a January order and honestly hadn't paid attention to cap shade until now, but pulling them out to check, mine do look noticeably lighter than an older vial I have sitting next to them for comparison. Haven't tested them and not going to use them until this gets sorted out. The discrepancy between the 110 EU result and the 1350+ EU results is the part that needs to get resolved before anyone draws firm conclusions, but given the stakes with endotoxins I'd rather sit on product than rush it while retesting is still ongoing.
