Same experience, arrived at from the opposite direction.

Reconstitution tip for anyone mixing dosing arithmetic from lyophilized powder: use bacteriostatic water, NOT sterile water. The benzyl alcohol in BAC water preserves multi-dose vials for up to 28 days.
Inject the water slowly down the side of the vial. NEVER shake — gentle swirling only until fully dissolved. Should be crystal clear with no particles.

dosing arithmetic — critical reminder about tirzepatide dose equivalence across formulations:
Mounjaro KwikPen and compounded tirzepatide are the same molecule but:
- KwikPen is ready to inject, no mixing needed
- Compounded requires reconstitution and proper syringe technique
- Verify your compounded concentration before each injection
- Never assume 1 vial = 1 dose without checking the math

Comparison of compounded dosing arithmetic delivery formats I've tried:
| Format | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|
| Lyophilized vial | Longest shelf life, lowest cost | Requires reconstitution |
| Pre-mixed vial | Ready to draw up | Shorter shelf life (28-45 days) |
| Pre-filled syringes | Most convenient | Higher cost, shorter shelf life |
| Sublingual drops | No needles | Lower bioavailability, less data |
I use lyophilized vials for cost and stability. The reconstitution takes 30 seconds once you've done it a few times.
