Read the numbered dose window. Whole units only; check the spec for your exact model.
Example — change to your numbers.
Math only — double-check against your vial label.
Wash your hands, then swab the rubber tops of the peptide vial and the water vial with alcohol. Let them dry.
Use bacteriostatic (BAC) water — sterile water with a preservative, sold for mixing peptides. With a new sterile syringe, draw the amount you entered in the calculator. A 1 mL syringe filled twice is 2 mL.
Push the needle into the peptide vial at an angle and let the liquid trickle down the glass, not onto the powder.
Gently swirl or roll the vial until the liquid is completely clear. Give it a few minutes if needed.
Write the date and what you mixed (for example 5 mg + 2 mL) on the vial. Keep it in the fridge at 2–8°C (35.6–46.4°F), away from light.
This is general practice. If your product came with its own diluent or instructions, follow those. Not sure what to buy? See the supplies checklist.
Strength = amount in the vial ÷ mL of water.
Units to draw = your dose ÷ strength × 100.
Example: 5 mg is 5,000 mcg. In 2 mL that is 2,500 mcg per mL. A 250 mcg dose is 250 ÷ 2,500 × 100 = 10 units (0.10 mL).
Using a V2 pen? 1 click = 1 unit = 0.01 mL. Enter the vial and what the cartridge holds, and this suggests a water volume with a simple amount per unit. What a pen setup needs
Dry powder estimate. Powder volume is assumed negligible; use the diluent your product specifies.
Amounts below are total blend mass. Ingredient amounts are listed separately.
| Pen units | Amount | Volume |
|---|
The suggestion favors a simple 1, 2, or 5 × power-of-ten amount per unit, then the largest final volume that fits. It does not choose a dose or a biologically suitable concentration.
The water estimate applies only to dry powder and assumes negligible powder displacement. Final solution volume, specified diluent, solubility, stability, sterility, cartridge compatibility, and working fill limits must be established separately. No allowance is made for priming or transfer losses.
V2 measurement specification ↗Bacteriostatic water: formulation instructions ↗Device units measure volume. The strength of your mix decides how much peptide is in each one.
Read the numbered dose window. Whole units only; check the spec for your exact model.
Drops, sprays and other pens need their own verified volume per click.
3 mL is what a cartridge holds, not how much you must mix. The original vial and the pen cartridge are different containers.
