Peptide Guides
Practical, plain-language guides to the parts people actually get stuck on — dosing math, reconstitution, and reading a lab report. Educational only, not medical advice.
Peptide Dosage Guide
How reconstitution works, a worked example, mcg vs mg, and the mistakes to avoid.
How to Read a COA
What a Certificate of Analysis is, what HPLC and MS purity mean, and how to spot a real one.
Guided Mixing Calculator
A step-by-step, fill-in-the-blank tool that turns your vial and dose into plain-English instructions.
Where to start
If you’re new to reconstitution, begin with the dosage guide — it walks through the one formula that ties vial size, bacteriostatic water, and dose together, with a worked example. Once the math clicks, the guided mixing calculator turns your own vial and dose into plain-English steps.
Before you trust a vial at all, the COA guide shows how to read a Certificate of Analysis — the lab report that tells you whether a product is what it claims and how pure it is. Together these cover the three things people get stuck on: the math, the mixing, and the sourcing. Keep the glossary open in another tab for any unfamiliar term.
Peptide guide FAQ
Where should I start with peptide reconstitution?
Start with the dosage guide, which explains the single relationship between vial amount, bacteriostatic water, and dose — get that straight and the units to draw fall out automatically. Then use the guided mixing calculator to apply it to your own vial in plain English.
What is the difference between reconstitution and dosing?
Reconstitution is mixing the freeze-dried peptide with bacteriostatic water to make a liquid you can measure. Dosing is how much of that liquid you draw for each injection. The amount of water you add changes the units per dose but not the dose itself.
How do I know a peptide is what it claims to be?
Ask for a Certificate of Analysis (COA) — a lab report showing identity and purity from HPLC and mass spectrometry. Our COA guide explains what a legitimate one contains and the red flags of a fake or decorative report.
