Hi all,

I was looking for what would be considered the proper containers to hold this solution in. Anyone have any input on correct liquid containers? Something with ml level on it.

Thanks

yeah it does thanks.

I just wanted a container that was at least 250ml-500ml which had a wide mouth but also measuring marks on it. Since I am doing the pps-pro I was going to make a measured mix and need the marks to see im where i want to be at. Then to dose I was going to use a syringe, hence the wide mouth.

Also supersmirky thanks for all the help. It seems that you are the only one willing to do so. I would think in a forum as huge as this one there would be more. I really appreciate your passing on of knowledge

so many options. Thanks everyone. Just one more thing. What type of plastic is ok? I know you all have posted options, but what about those dollar brand plastic containers? As long as it has a ml measure on the side and is 500ml thats al i need. I don't need to over-complicate my dosing no offense to everyone but I am new. I have syringes so I just need a container that will hold my solution when i have it mixed and put it in the fridge.
Thanks

I like alot of the bottles you guys talked about. I will eventually get something better. As for now I just went to lowes and purchased plastic paint containers. They have them in different sizes and have markings in ml's on the side. I got the small one, which about half is 500ml. I mixed up my solution and I store it in the fridge. I also just have 3ml syringes from the hospital I work at. Total cost for me was about $3
I can't shake the solution really well as the containers leak but all the solids seem to be mixed and i just use a spoon to stir before i get my dose.
Thanks again all for the input

so what you guys are doing is using the cap on the bottle to dose? I know not everyone has the option of a free syringe, but i bet that would be cheaper to get just an ordinary measured bottle and a syringe from online. Just my thought. I noticed most of them bottles were over $8. for a bottle thats crazy. I picked up a new bottle with ml measurements on it for $1.25 and my syringes were free.
