Is a 27G needle the right choice for drawing mazdutide at 4 mg/mL?

Asked 8 Jun 2024Modified 2.1 years agoViewed 8.2k times

Setup, so nobody has to ask: a 27G needle · mazdutide · 4 mg/mL.

Both of these get recommended confidently by different people, which suggests neither is obviously right.

My constraints are cost, measurement resolution and how much handling I am prepared to do — in roughly that order.

Is there a defensible reason to prefer one, or is this a coin flip?
