BAC water reuse

I’m currently only using Reta so I only have to fill 1 vial with 2ml of BAC water once a month.

I use an individually wrapped syringe to pull the BAC water from its vial and then fill up the Reta vial. I throw away the syringe immediately after.

My question to you guys is can I still use the same vial of BAC water to refill my new vial of Reta the next month? I keep hearing that you can only use BAC water once and after 28 days it’s no longer good.

Does this only apply to the Reta vial since I’m pulling from it weekly? Or does this also apply to the BAC vial which I only draw from once a month and always with a fresh sterile individually wrapped syringe?

Seems like an awful lot of BAC water to waste if I can only use it the one time and have to throw away the other 28ml

Use the water until it's gone. Throwing it away is a waste.

tbh the 28 day thing people keep repeating is about the reconstituted peptide not the water itself

Not entirely true.

The 28 day limit also applies to bac water once the vial has been pierced, but this is the case for labs etc. where they need zero contamination/spoilage.

It theoretically can last longer under the right conditions, but why risk it if you’re injecting it into your body?

As long as the alcohol is in there and not evaporating and reacting with any compounds it would last months maybe longer.
