Mixing trimix prescriptions

| I have a couple vials of trimix that have small amounts in them.
Neither expire for 4 - 6 months. Is there any problem with removing the
trimix from one vial with a syringe and putting it into the other vial?

My doctor said not to do this. The potency of the T-mix varies from
vial to vial, being different ages. By adding one to another, you
change the effectiveness of the entire new mix. Better to use one vial
or another for your shot.

You risk the possibility of losing the sterility of the solution when
you transfer. It is just not worth the risk to save a few bucks.
Assuming that you use a large dose, use two needles. Empty the first
vial and see how much you have in that needle and only withdraw enough
from the second vial to equal your normal dose. Then inject with both
needles one right after the other.
