1. Introduction to Peptides and Dosage Calculation

Peptide Dosage Calculator

Peptides are powerful therapeutic tools used for a variety of purposes, including fat loss, recovery, and anti-aging. However, proper preparation and dosing are essential to maximize their benefits and avoid risks. This guide will teach you how to:

• Safely mix peptides with bacteriostatic water.
• Accurately calculate dosages for your specific needs.

Whether you’re a beginner or experienced user, this step-by-step guide ensures precision and safety.

2. Why Proper Mixing and Dosage Are Crucial

Incorrectly mixing or dosing peptides can lead to several issues:

1. Reduced Effectiveness:
   Under-dosing may prevent you from seeing results, while overdosing can waste the peptide or cause side effects.
2. Safety Concerns:
   Using too much peptide can stress your body, leading to unwanted side effects.
3. Consistency:
   Proper reconstitution ensures consistent dosing throughout the treatment cycle.

3. Essential Tools for Peptide Dosage Calculator

Before mixing peptides, gather the necessary tools for safe and accurate reconstitution:

1. Peptide Vial: Contains the powdered peptide.
2. Bacteriostatic Water: Sterile water used for reconstitution.
3. Syringes: For drawing water and mixing with the peptide.
4. Alcohol Wipes: To sterilize vial tops and injection areas.
5. Sharp Bin: A safe disposal container for used needles and syringes.

4. Step-by-Step Guide to Mixing Peptides

Follow these steps to safely mix your peptide:

1. Sterilize the Vial

• Use an alcohol wipe to clean the top of the peptide vial and the bacteriostatic water vial.

2. Draw the Water

• Use a syringe to draw the desired amount of bacteriostatic water.
  • Example: For a 5 mg vial, you might use 1 mL of water to achieve a 5 mg/mL concentration.

3. Inject the Water into the Peptide Vial

• Slowly inject the water into the peptide vial.
• Avoid shaking the vial; gently swirl it to mix the powder and water.

4. Store the Reconstituted Peptide

• Once mixed, store the peptide vial in the refrigerator. Most peptides remain stable for 2–4 weeks when refrigerated.

5. How to Calculate Peptide Dosages

After mixing the peptide, you need to calculate the correct dosage for your treatment. Here’s how:

Key Formula:

Volume to Draw (mL) = Desired Dose (mcg) ÷ Concentration (mcg/mL)

6. Examples of Peptide Dosage Calculations

Here are examples of common peptide dosage calculations:

AOD-9604

1. Reconstitution:
   • Add 1 mL of bacteriostatic water to a 5 mg vial.
   • Concentration = 5 mg/mL = 5000 mcg/mL.
2. Desired Dose: 200 mcg
   • Volume to Draw = 200 ÷ 5000 = 0.04 mL per injection.

BPC-157

1. Reconstitution:
   • Add 2 mL of bacteriostatic water to a 5 mg vial.
   • Concentration = 5 mg/2 mL = 2500 mcg/mL.
2. Desired Dose: 250 mcg
   • Volume to Draw = 250 ÷ 2500 = 0.1 mL per injection.

TB-500

1. Reconstitution:
   • Add 2 mL of bacteriostatic water to a 10 mg vial.
   • Concentration = 10 mg/2 mL = 5000 mcg/mL.
2. Desired Dose: 2 mg (2000 mcg)
   • Volume to Draw = 2000 ÷ 5000 = 0.4 mL per injection.

Semaglutide

1. Reconstitution:
   • Add 1 mL of bacteriostatic water to a 1 mg vial.
   • Concentration = 1 mg/mL = 1000 mcg/mL.
2. Desired Dose: 500 mcg
   • Volume to Draw = 500 ÷ 1000 = 0.5 mL per injection.

PT-141

1. Reconstitution:
   • Add 1.5 mL of bacteriostatic water to a 10 mg vial.
   • Concentration = 10 mg/1.5 mL = 6666 mcg/mL.
2. Desired Dose: 1 mg (1000 mcg)
   • Volume to Draw = 1000 ÷ 6666 = 0.15 mL per injection.

7. Tips for Safe Peptide Use

• Always use sterile tools and clean the vial tops with alcohol wipes before mixing.
• Do not exceed recommended dosages.
• Store reconstituted peptides in a refrigerator to maintain potency.
• Consult a healthcare provider before starting any peptide therapy
