Get dosage correct

Postby Mcbriz28 » Thu Jun 25, 2020 4:30 pm

Been on Trimix for 4 months now with great results. Only thing that has bothered me is thinking I have dosage dialed in then boom it either will be to much or not enough. Thought I had it dialed in pretty good at .10 ml then about a week later a get a longer than I wanted erection lasted right at 4 hour mark. When before it would last not quite two hours. I drop back to .07 works great once more for a couple of days then have to go back to .10 . Is this normal or am I just over thinking it.

Results have been pretty consistent for me but some men say they get different results from different injection sites, specially when switching sides.

I’ve been using Trimix for nearly ten years I’m guessing, and in my experience my inconsistent results were more related to my injection skill.
Early on I would often get oddly inconsistent results, but as the months went by I got more skillful at popping into the right spot and getting all the medicine into the corpora.

just went to my ed doc and he got me a script for trimix, when you draw the right amount oc mix do you change the needle when you go to inject your self?i know that when i inject my self with test c i change needles, because the needle gets dull when going through the rubber stoper in the vile, also what size is the needle that they use to inject them selfs. doc said to start off with.50 of trimix i was taking 20 units of edex, dock also that i won;t get the ache in my dick like i do with edex, is this true?

I'm a new user, so I can't help with all of your questions, but I use 30g 1/2 insulin needles that are fixed, so you can not change them after drawing the trimix. The rubber doesn't seem to dull the Needle, just be sure to use an alcohol swab to sterilize the vial top. Pretty sure you mean 5 units, not .5, but I am still getting the measurements straight in my head...switching from units to ml to cc has me messed up...lol...I can't speak to the pain issue because I started with trimix and have not had any...

No, I use 5/16 31 gauge insulin needles and use the same needle to draw and inject.

This is a non-issue, quit worrying about that.
rdmercer1953 wrote:... also what size is the needle that they use to inject them selfs.

Different guys use different sizes. I use 5/16, 31 gauge .30ml insulin syringes. I think some guys use as large as 29 gauge but I can't imagine why. The lengths vary from 5/16 to 1/2". I haven't heard of any other lengths used. Syringe volume is determined by how much you need to inject. IMHO the smaller the better as I think it makes it easier to depress the plunger and thereby more able to determine resistance which can give indication of proper placement.

I don't understand. Were you using and Edex 20 which contains 20mcg of alprostadil? Or were you using 20 units of one of the several strength Edex cartridges? How much tri-mix you use will be dependent on the strength of the mix. If you really need .5ml of tri-mix I'd ask for a stronger mix. Or did you mean you're only to use 5 units? Double check with your doctor for clarity. You're paying the doctor for his knowledge and advice. I'd follow his advice.

I wouldn't know. If the alprostadil was causing ache then the presumably lesser amount of alprostadil may indeed ache less. However you may continue to have alprostadil ache with any amount, or not. You may have an adverse reaction to the other ingredients in tri-mix. You won't know until you try. Hopefully you'll find the perfect mix for you.

If you were using a whole Edex 20 cartridge then another way of stating what you were using was 100 units (1ml) of alprostadil mono-mix at a concentration of 20 mcg per ml. That's what I started with too. I'm currently usually using 15 units of a mono-mix at a concentration of 80 mcg per ml. So 4 times as strong as the Edex 20.

You're now using a tri-mix of unknown strength (I don't think you mentioned the mix) that as the name implies contains 3 active ingredients. Those ingredients are believed to act synergistically, where the combined effect of the drugs is greater than the sum of their separate effects. So, not knowing your mix I have no idea where you should start. And not being a medical professional and having no actual experience with tri-mix, I wouldn't have a clue anyhow. It's always better to start low and work your way up. If you trust your doctor, and I assume you do as you're seeing him/her, I'd say to follow the doctor's advice on dose.

Why did you switch to tri-mix? I switched to compounded mono-mix due to cost.

My uro told me to use syringes like that where you switch the needle head after drawing out the dose from the bottle for the same reason; the bottle will dull the needle. But these syringes require a prescription and are more expensive.

I would NOT start off with .50 of trimix. I would start very low and build up to what you need through experimentation. Not worth a trip to the ER.
44, ED problems began around age 28 when I was on finasteride for hair loss, and also got circumcised so I lost a lot of sensation. Pills gave me bad headaches and other side effects. Now using trimix 30/1/20. So far so good.

Until these very recent posts I've never ever heard of changing needles to inject any of these drugs we stick in our dicks. I wouldn't worry about that at all. Yes, change from the horse needle to a finer one when injecting the super thick meds for T shots but that's not what we're talking about here. This is the first I've ever heard about doing it with dick injections. I'd say to quit worrying about that.
