Reconstitution calculator
Enter the milligrams in the vial and the millilitres of liquid added. The calculator gives the concentration and converts any amount you type into millilitres and U-100 units. It does not suggest an amount. How the maths works.

Arithmetic only. It assumes the vial holds exactly what the label says.

- 2,500 mcg/mL
- Per U-100 unit
- 25 mcg
- Volume for your amount

How the calculation works
- Concentration = milligrams in the vial ÷ millilitres of liquid added. A 5 mg vial with 2 mL is 2.5 mg/mL, which is 2,500 mcg/mL.
- A U-100 insulin syringe holds 1 mL in 100 units, so one unit is 0.01 mL. At 2,500 mcg/mL, each unit holds 25 mcg.
- Volume for an amount = amount ÷ concentration. Multiply the millilitres by 100 to get syringe units.
What it does not do
It does not suggest an amount: the amount field starts empty and takes your own number. It assumes the vial holds exactly what the label says, which only a certificate of analysis can confirm. For the doses that published studies used, see each peptide page or the dosage chart.
