Reconstitution calculator

Get the exact number of units to draw

Divide your dose by the vial’s concentration, then multiply by 100 for a U-100 insulin syringe. Concentration is the milligrams in the vial divided by the milliliters of bacteriostatic water you added. A 5 mg vial mixed with 2 mL is 2.5 mg per mL, so a 250 mcg dose (0.25 mg) is 0.1 mL — 10 units. A small slip turns a precise dose into a guess, so enter your numbers below and the calculator shows the draw on a syringe.

Pulls a common vial size and typical dose — you can edit anything after.

The total milligrams of peptide, printed on the vial.
How much water you draw into the vial to reconstitute it.
Standard insulin syringes are U-100: 100 units = 1 mL.

How reconstitution works

💧

Concentration

Peptide (mg) ÷ water (mL) = how many mg sit in each mL. More water = weaker concentration = larger volume per dose.

📏

Volume to draw

Target dose ÷ concentration = the mL you draw. Multiply by 100 to get insulin-syringe units.

🎯

Readability

Aim for a draw that lands on easy-to-read tick marks. If units are tiny, add less water next time.
