Refreezing Trimix - Opinions ?

[StanWest]

Hello the Forum, With a new vial 5 mg of trimix ordered, I am considering preparing several syringes for injection and placing into the refrigerator and refreezing the vial. This to keep the trimix from degrading more quickly. Perhaps no more than 2 weeks worth of prefilled syringes kept cold. Which means the vial will be unfroze and refroze several times. Any opinions on this, I have heard of this method. What are the pros and cons?

Second consideration is keeping trimix vial in a thermoelectric insulin cooler kept at just above freezing for the trimix vial, which would be much cooler than my refrig is set to. This might require mods to the thermostat circuit, but its a can do.

Any thought or opinions?
Thanks, Stan

I did exactly what you're describing for the six years I was on trimix (now using quadmix).

The multiple cycles of thaw-and-refreeze seemed to have no effect on the strength or performance of the trimix over periods as long as three or four months.

My very experienced urologist said to keep it in the fridge, not the freezer, but he didn't specify why, he just said - trust me I know what I'm talking about.

I had to tell my urologist about bimix and why it exists, also different formulations of trimix and the pain it can cause. He didn't have a clue. He thought he knew what he was talking about also. I like it when they can explain the reasons.

With a new 5ml vial of trimix, I immediately fill 35 syringes with my 0.15ml dose. Throw the vial away, place 34 pre-filled syringes in the freezer, and one in the fridge. Each time I'm allowed to inject and have sex with my wife, I use the one in the fridge and pull one out of the freezer and put it in the fridge. Repeat til I need a new 5ml from the compounder.
