[QUOTE="Jasen Bruce, post: 45760, member: 14"] If you only have 5 pre-loads I would just toss them and switch to the multi-dosed vial you just received. Pre-loaded syringes are going to become obsolete after evidence shows that sterility is not well preserved, in addition to the rubber stopper degrading within the medication after sitting (causing further contamination). I stopped using pre-loads once this became evident, and most pharmacies are discontinuing due to FDA pressure. For subQ to work well its best to use a compounded testosterone suspended in grapeseed oil. Most experienced compounders (Empower and APS) use less preservative and less viscous oil which allows for easier sc administration with reduced irritation. One thing to always remember when it comes to testosterone. It is a controlled substance so before throwing any out always be sure you can obtain a refill first. If your try to refill too early the pharmacy will deny it and make you wait until your previous prescription was supposed to run out. In your case, this is irrelevant as you already received your next refill. This is something to keep in mind for the future. Personally I would keep the HCG since its still in lyophilized form (shelf life will preserve). You can use it up and order less at your next refill, therefore saving money. I prefer to keep an extra on hand for traveling etc. I have lost or broken HCG bottles before. The anastrozol should also be okay to keep as you may need it for emergency. The capsule/tablet form will not go "bad". [/QUOTE]
