[QUOTE="madman, post: 88182, member: 13851"] If your prescription is either Delatestryl (enanthate) or Depo-Testosterone (cypionate) the pharmaceutical company always slightly overfills the vial due to the loss from using regular syringes (high dead space) and they do not seem to realize that a majority of people on trt are switching to using insulin syringes (low dead space) let alone following more sensible protocols whether injecting either (weekly/twice weekly/3 times weekly/EOD/or daily) so realisticly it is your responsibility to know exactly how much you are injecting as if your read the leaflet it basically states under the dosing and administration section that " for replacement in the hypogonadal male, 50-400mg should be administered every two to four weeks (shameful protocol we all know). Even when using the 1ml vials there should be slight overfill and if you are injecting .5ml (not .5mg as you stated) than you are getting 4 injections out of each 1ml vial and you are drawing/injecting 4 times as oppose to once every 2-4 weeks so you will end up being short on your medication.
