Draw 5 units (0.05 mL) on a U-100 · 1 mL for a 250 mcg dose. Each vial gives about 40 doses.

How to use the calculator

  1. Enter the total peptide in your vial (e.g. 10 mg).
  2. Enter the bacteriostatic (BAC) water you are adding (e.g. 2 mL).
  3. Enter your desired dose per injection (e.g. 250 mcg).
  4. Review the calculated volume and U-100 syringe units. Outputs do not determine a suitable dose or verify your inputs.

Worked example

A 10 mg vial reconstituted with 2 mL of BAC water gives a concentration of 5 mg/mL. A 0.5 mg (500 mcg) dose is 0.1 mL — which is 10 units on a U-100 syringe, and about 20 doses per vial.

Common questions

What is a “unit” on an insulin syringe?

On a U-100 syringe, 100 units = 1 mL. So 10 units = 0.1 mL.

Why does my dose need more than 100 units?

Your concentration is too low for that dose in a single draw. Add more BAC water to lower the volume per dose, or split the dose.
