Keeping Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) in a Cold Fridge

Keeping HCG in a Cold Fridge

I shoot 400ius of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) at a time, I break open an amp that has 2000ius, shoot 2mL of water, and then draw 0.4mL of the mixed solution into 5 insulin pins, and store them in the fridge

The problem is that my fridge is one of those little bar fridges, and it's not that reliable. It gets VERY cold sometimes, for example, I took my milk out of the fridge this morning and there were chunks of ice in it. Will this destroy my Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) or should it be fine?

The freezing itself is fine as long you don't make it go trough various freezing cycles. I have seen one Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) manufacter recomending it to be frozen at -18 º C once mixed for long term storage. The problem would be the freezing/defreezing thing. Does it have a freezer? Maybe just stick it there?

Yeah, that's not a bad idea, thanks.

I have enough Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) that I can get away with only storing it in the fridge for a week to a week and a half, then I can just open a new amp and mix some more

Online? Do you happen to have a reference?

I'm guessing that you have sterile water for injection rather than bacteriostatic water. Technically, sterile water for injection is only meant for immeidate use. On the other hand, guys have stored it in the refrigerator without problem.

Do any of the manufacturers prepackage bacteriostic water with their Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) or do you need to purchase seperately?

The USa brand does, but I buy BW with all others

It was one of the main chinese manufacters. It came around with a google of "HCG HMG powder", I think.

I got it from g-e-t-p-i-n-z and it says it's bacteriostatic water
