Reconstitution tip for anyone mixing dosing arithmetic from lyophilized powder: use bacteriostatic water, NOT sterile water. The benzyl alcohol in BAC water preserves multi-dose vials for up to 28 days.
Inject the water slowly down the side of the vial. NEVER shake — gentle swirling only until fully dissolved. Should be crystal clear with no particles.

Right, and one flattering data point from a group buy is not consistency. Consistency means separate batches, separately commissioned, over months.
Worth separating that from vendor vetting, which this thread keeps folding into the same question. They behave differently and the advice does not transfer.

This answered a question I did not know how to ask. Adding it to my notes with a link back to this thread.

Bacteriostatic water quality matters for dosing arithmetic reconstitution. Not all BAC water is created equal:
- Should contain 0.9% benzyl alcohol as preservative
- Must be sterile and pyrogen-free
- Should come in a sealed, intact vial
- Check expiration date — yes, BAC water expires
- Store at room temperature, protected from light
I buy from a reputable medical supply company, not Amazon marketplace sellers. The $3 savings isn't worth the infection risk from unverified BAC water.

Can confirm. Same sequence, different timescale.
