[QUOTE="Jasen Bruce, post: 20843, member: 14"] Lipo-C is a generic term for a popular lipotropic injectable nutrient combination. Dr Rand McClain and I actually came up with the term "Lipo-C" back when you could private label compounded injectables which you no longer can. The common formula simply contained MIC (see breakdown below) and B12. We added Carnitine and the full B-Complex (therefore the "C" in Lipo-C). Because I was a pharmacy salesmen at the time, I marketed the formula under the name "Lipo-C" to doctors across the US who prescribe injectable nutrients. Its cool to see it called Lipo-C still by other doctors. The reason for the occasional pain and injection site reaction is due to the nature of the compound itself. There are many ingredients packed into this formula which increases the concentration, and therefore the amount of ingredient particles per fluid volume. The high concentration, plus the lower Ph required to preserve some of the ingredients such as vitamin B6 causes the irritation. More Benzyl Alcohol is used to make the ingredients soluable at a high concentration, in addition to acting as a needed preservative. The BA plus low Ph can cause a "sting" upon injecting in some people. To mitigate this, I always recommend using a 5/8" 26g needle so that the Lipo-C is deposited a bit deeper than subq. This can help increase the absorption rate from the site and reduce chance for any lump or bruise to form. The dosage of 1ml is indeed high. Dr McClain recommends that dosage based on research he reviewed on how much of the ingredients are needed to promote fat loss. Believe it or not, we used to tell people 1-3ml daily! I have found through observation that, although daily use can be beneficial towards fat loss, Lipo-C does not have to be taken daily to improve energy levels and provide other benefits associated with its ingredients. I will paste a fact sheet I put together on the Lipo-c formula. There are variations of this formula. Of course, since compounded medications are not exclusive each pharmacy produces some variation of this formula (under different names including Lipo-C). [/QUOTE]
