Peptide dose calculator

Enter your vial size, reconstitution volume, and desired dose — we'll tell you exactly how much to draw and how many units that is on a U-100 insulin syringe. No math in your head.

On a U-100 insulin syringe (the most common type), 100 units = 1.00 mL. A half-syringe is 50 units; a quarter is 25 units.

How the math works

Concentration = vial mcg ÷ mL of diluent. Draw volume = dose mcg ÷ concentration. Units (U-100) = draw mL × 100. That's it.

Why so many recon volumes?

Concentrating the vial means smaller draws (great for tiny doses). Diluting means larger, more comfortable SQ injections. Pick what matches your syringe.

What's a U-100 syringe?

A standard insulin syringe calibrated so 100 units = 1.00 mL. 10 units = 0.10 mL = one-tenth of a syringe.

Prefer the exact numbers in the box?

Every Origin Health product ships with a printed reference PDF — the reconstitution math is already done for the batch you receive, for every protocol dose. This calculator is for when you want to experiment with a different recon volume.
