Preparation Create a safe environment
Wash your hands carefully and prepare a clean surface. Gather your peptide pen, alcohol swabs, and a disposal container. Choose a quiet space where you will not be interrupted.
Handling the PEN Remove the pen from the refrigerator and confirm the label, dosage, and expiration date. Uncap the vial and clean the rubber top with an alcohol swab before drawing your dose.
Drawing the DosageTurn the dial on the back end of the pen to the prescribed amount.
Always match the prescription amount in mL to the units on the dial or syringe.
Choosing the Injection Site Subcutaneous injections are most commonly given in the abdomen (at least 2 inches away from the belly button) or in the thighs. Clean the site with an alcohol swab and allow it to dry completely before injecting.
Do not blow on the site, as this spreads bacteria.
Performing the Injection Pinch a fold of skin, insert the needle at a 90° angle to the surface of the skin, and depress the plunger slowly until the pen is empty. Count to five before withdrawing the needle at the same angle.
Aftercare and DisposalDo not rub or massage the site. Rotate injection sites to avoid irritation. Recap and unscrew the needle, disposing of it in a biohazard container. Return peptides to the refrigerator immediately.
Bruising can occur, especially if the technique is poor or if you are on blood thinners. Keep your hand steady, avoid switching mid‑injection, and never change angles while the needle is inserted.
