How to Mix HCG 2000 Ampule

Human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) is produced naturally by the female body when a pregnancy is developing. Injectable hCG is used as part of a weight loss protocol and is sold in prepackaged ampules containing specific dosages of hCG powder. According to Dr. A.T.W. Simeons, author of "Pounds and Inches," hCG injections speed up the body's metabolic processes similar to the manner in which a pregnant woman's body responds to hCG. To mix an hCG ampule for injection, each step must be followed carefully to avoid infection at the injection site.

  Wash your hands and clean a sterile, flat surface for work. Open the sharps container and place it to one side. Lay out all required materials within easy reach.

• 2

  Open the seal on the bacteriostatic water vial and empty vial. Open the hCG 2000 ampule by snapping the top away from the body. Break the hCG vial at the thinnest point.

• 3

  Using the syringe, draw 5 to 8 cc of water. For a high dose over fewer days, use less water, increasing the dilution for lower doses or more days. Inject into the empty vial.

• 4

  Draw 1 cc of water and inject it into the hCG vial. Swirl gently to dissolve the hCG.

• 5

  Draw the dissolved hCG mixture into the syringe and inject it into the water dosage vial. Swirl gently. The ampule is now mixed and may be injected using a new syringe.
