Peptide Calculator
Calculate reconstitution, dosage, and cycle needs for research peptides.
Accurate Peptide Dosing, Simplified
Properly calculating peptide dosages is critical for accurate research. This calculator removes the guesswork from both reconstitution and administration, ensuring you can precisely measure your desired dose. It's an essential tool for any researcher working with peptides to ensure repeatable and accurate experiments.

How to Calculate Your Dosage
The tool is divided into two parts: reconstitution and cycle planning.
Part 1: Reconstitution
- Vial Size (mg): Enter the total amount of lyophilized peptide in the vial.
- Liquid Added (ml): Enter the total volume of bacteriostatic water you will add to the vial.
- Desired Dose (mcg): Enter the specific dose you want to administer for your research.
The calculator will show you exactly how many units to draw into an insulin syringe.
Part 2: Cycle Planning
- Peptide Dose (mcg): Enter the dose you'll use for each administration.
- Frequency: How many times per day you will administer the dose.
- Days per Week: How many days per week you will administer the dose.
This part helps you understand your total weekly peptide needs, how long a vial will last, and how many vials you'll need for a full cycle.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What is an "IU" on an insulin syringe?
A: "IU" stands for International Unit, but in the context of insulin syringes, it simply refers to the unit markings on the syringe barrel. A standard U-100 insulin syringe has 100 units per 1ml.
Q: Why is accurate reconstitution important?
A: The concentration of your final solution determines the dosage. Inaccurate measurements of either the peptide powder or the water will lead to incorrect dosing, compromising research results.
