Reta Day 2 - Need Advice on Storage, Placebo Effects, and Switching

4 replies3 peopleFeb 19, 2026☆ Follow
Summary

how long does reta take to work and how should it be stored in the fridge plus experiences switching to tirz

The original poster reported reduced hunger after a 1 mg dose that may or may not have been placebo and asked about fridge storage and switching compounds. Replies confirmed refrigeration as proper, noted full absorption can take up to three days, and stated that reconstituted vials with preservative last at least 30 days when sterile technique is followed. No one addressed switching experiences.

What this discussion establishesStill open

whether anyone has switched from reta to tirz and how the transition felt

Nothing here is advice.

Hi there. Got my vial yesterday and took a 1 mg shot. Not sure if it was just in my head, but after having just three eggs I didn't feel hungry at all for the rest of the day, which is unusual for me. I'm hesitant to claim it kicked in that fast, yet it seems possible. Today I ate normally and feel fine. What do others think? Also, about keeping it stored – it's in the regular refrigerator now, and the vial feels really cold. Is that an issue? Considering a small separate fridge, and curious if others find their vials cold as well. Plus, has anyone switched over to Tirz from this, and what was the experience like? Might do that if side effects get rough, though things are okay so far.

The refrigerator is the right place for storage. Also protect it from light exposure by using an opaque container.

Full absorption into the bloodstream might require as long as three days.

What's the shelf life when kept refrigerated?

With a preservative in the BAC water, they should be good for a minimum of 30 days, though plenty of people go well beyond that. Always use sterile technique like swabbing with alcohol prior to injection and avoid reusing needles. Throw it out if it becomes cloudy or shows contamination.
