Bacteriostatic Water in Canada
Every lyophilized peptide needs bacteriostatic water — and it’s the thing everyone forgets to order. Here’s the two-minute version, and where to get it in Canada.
What is bacteriostatic water?
Bacteriostatic water is sterile water preserved with 0.9% benzyl alcohol. The preservative suppresses bacterial growth, which is what makes multiple draws from the same vial safe over a multi-week protocol. Plain sterile water has no preservative — once opened, it’s single-use.
Why it’s hard to buy in Canada
Pharmacies typically don’t sell it over the counter, and marketplace listings are frequently mislabelled sterile water. Buying from a peptide supplier that stocks USP-grade bacteriostatic water alongside its vials is the reliable route.
Our answer: free with every pack
Every peptide 10-pack you order at 10 Pack Peptides automatically adds one free 10mL vial of bacteriostatic water. Need more? The 10-vial pack is $79 — $7.90 per vial, enough diluent to carry an entire protocol without reordering.
Using it correctly
Draw your bacteriostatic water, inject it slowly against the vial wall of the lyophilized peptide, and swirl — never shake. Full walkthrough in the reconstitution guide.
