About This Calculator

When working with peptides, doses are typically measured in micrograms (mcg), but insulin syringes measure in units. This calculator bridges that gap, converting your mcg dose into the exact number of insulin syringe units to draw.

How It Works

Enter your vial's peptide content, the amount of BAC water you used for reconstitution, and your target dose in mcg. The calculator determines the concentration and converts your dose to insulin syringe units.

Frequently Asked Questions

U-100 insulin syringes have 100 units per 1 mL. So 10 units = 0.1 mL, 25 units = 0.25 mL, 50 units = 0.5 mL, etc.
