Peptide reconstitution calculator

Tell it what your vial says and how much you want per draw. It works out how much bacteriostatic water to add, and which line on your syringe that lands on. No account, no email, nothing leaves your browser.

Each button splits the vial into that many equal draws

These buttons are just division. Each one splits the vial into equal draws. They are not a suggestion of how much to take.

Empty on purpose. We don’t pick an amount for anyone, so nothing is pre-selected. Tap a button above and the vial and the syringe fill in.

The words

What reconstitution means

Your vial holds freeze-dried powder. Reconstituting it means adding bacteriostatic water so the powder dissolves and you can measure it with a syringe. That is the whole word. Some labels call the powder lyophilized, which is the same thing.

The one thing worth knowing before you start: once the water is in, it cannot come back out. That is why this calculator runs before you open anything. The step-by-step

The arithmetic

It is two divisions, and the first one decides everything.

Milligrams in the vial, divided by millilitres of water, gives you strength. Then the amount you want, divided by that strength, gives you the volume to draw.

A 5 mg vial, two ways

Add 2 mL of water: 5 ÷ 2 = 2.5 mg/mL. A 0.5 mg draw is 0.5 ÷ 2.5 = 0.20 mL, which is 20 units on a U-100 syringe.

Add 5 mL instead: 5 ÷ 5 = 1 mg/mL. The same 0.5 mg draw is now 0.50 mL — 50 units.

Same vial, same 0.5 mg, two and a half times the liquid. The water is the choice that decides everything downstream.

Why this one runs backwards

The water is the answer, not the question.

Most calculators ask how much water you added and hand back a number like 6.4 units. No syringe can be read to 6.4. You end up eyeballing a mark that does not exist.

But you choose the water before you mix, so it is the number worth getting right. This one checks every line printed on your syringe, throws out the volumes that overfill the vial or leave powder undissolved, and picks one that lands on a mark you can actually see.

What that looks like

A 70 mg Glow vial holds 50 mg of GHK-Cu. Add 2.50 mL and a 2 mg draw is exactly 10 units. Add 3 mL and the same 2 mg becomes 12 units.

Both are correct. One is a numbered line you can read across the room. That is the entire reason to solve for the water.

Per blend

Pre-filled with what is in each vial.

Only three blends are live so far. We add a compound once we can source what is in it and how much dissolves. Never before that.
