comment on anyone else notice fatigue kicking in around week 46 in c/sideeffects · 69 points · 4 months ago

Correction: that is a known effect of reduced intake rather than a direct drug effect. The distinction matters because the fix is different.

UV response is not uniform across species. At 214nm you are looking at the peptide bond, which is why it is the working wavelength for this class; at 280nm you only see tryptophan, tyrosine and phenylalanine.

I keep a laminated card in the drawer with the arithmetic on it. Looks ridiculous. Has never once let me draw the wrong volume.

A shoulder that does not baseline-resolve cannot be quantified honestly. You can report it as an unresolved shoulder, which is useful information, or you can develop the method until it resolves.

comment on [Meta] proposal — a flair for reconstitution posts in c/reconstitution · 36 points · 9 months ago

Bacteriostatic water contains benzyl alcohol as a preservative, which is what makes repeated entry into the same vial reasonable. Plain sterile water has no preservative.

comment on [Meta] proposal — a flair for reconstitution posts in c/reconstitution · 1 points · 9 months ago

Careful — that arithmetic is wrong. 15mg in 3mL is 5mg/mL, so 0.25mg draws to 5 units, not what you wrote.

Formulary criteria are revised, and plan renewal is a natural point at which a previously refused request may succeed without anything about the applicant changing.

Pushback: you changed the dose, the meal timing and the training in the same fortnight, so the attribution is guesswork.

The PDF creation date being later than the analysis date is usually a re-issue or a re-export. It is worth one question and it is not evidence of anything on its own.

Compared prices across two neighbouring countries and found the difference was mostly pack size once I normalised it.

Adding one practical thing — run the blank. It answers this before anyone has to argue about it.

comment on [Question] integration — what am I missing here in c/hplc · 101 points · 1 year ago

Ran a blank after a high-concentration injection and found the carryover I had been calling an impurity.

permalink

comment on [Question] how do you actually verify bacteriostatic water in c/reconstitution · 44 points · 1 year ago

The arithmetic in full: concentration is mass over volume, so 30mg into 3mL gives 10mg/mL. A U-100 syringe is graduated at 100 units per millilitre, so 2mg is 2 divided by 10 millilitres, which is 20 units.

comment on three years of sulphur burps threads, summarised so you do not have to read them in c/sideeffects · 14 points · 1 year ago

A symptom that begins the day after the shot and fades by day four tracks the exposure curve. One that appears at random in week 49 probably does not, and that is worth saying to a clinician rather than to us.

permalink

comment on integration — 22 things I got wrong before I got it right in c/hplc · 195 points · 1 year ago

Carryover from a previous high-concentration injection looks exactly like a small impurity. The blank injection is four minutes and it removes the ambiguity entirely.

comment on [Question] area percent — what am I missing here in c/coa · 42 points · 1 year ago

Area percent is the peak area of your compound over the total integrated area, at one wavelength, on one gradient.

Agreed, and the practical version is: ask for the itemised table. If it exists, you get it.

Mine settled at week 55 and has not come back since, across two more steps.

comment on [Discussion] can we stop arguing about constipation until somebody posts a number in c/sideeffects · 8 points · 1 year ago

The pattern almost everyone here describes, written out once so it can be linked.

Agreed, with the caveat that "usually settles" is not "always settles" and the exceptions should still get asked about properly.
