Reconstitution ratio
Last updated
The relationship between peptide amount and water added (e.g. 5 mg in 2 mL). Changing it doesn’t change your dose — only how many units you draw for that dose.
A useful way to see this: 5 mg in 1 mL and 5 mg in 2 mL both deliver the same 250 mcg dose, but the second draws twice as many units for that dose. Choosing more water can make small doses easier to measure precisely on the syringe, while less water keeps the injection volume tiny. The calculator exists to translate whichever ratio is chosen into the exact units to draw.
