Adamax 5 mg: dosing evidence and reconstitution math

A 5 mg vial of Adamax mixed with 2 mL of diluent is 2.5 mg/mL, so 10 units on a U-100 syringe (0.1 mL) contain 250 mcg.

Is there an established dose?

No FDA label or published human trial defines a dose of Adamax, so we do not publish one. Online "protocols" for it are not evidence.

5 mg vial concentration table

Concentration = vial content ÷ diluent volume. A U-100 insulin syringe holds 1 mL in 100 units, so 1 unit = 0.01 mL.

Arithmetic only; it assumes the vial contains exactly what the label states. Independent tests often find vials under- or over-filled, which is why a lot's certificate of analysis matters.

Syringe units for a given amount

Units on a U-100 syringe needed to draw each amount from this 5 mg vial, by diluent volume. The amounts are fractions of the vial (1/50, 1/20, 1/10, 1/5), not dose suggestions.

Units = amount ÷ concentration × 100. Draws above 100 units exceed a 1 mL syringe.

What the research covers

A PubMed search for "Adamax"[tiab] returned 39 records (35 from the last five years), none indexed as clinical trials when checked on October 2026.

Where research vials are listed

18 suppliers in our directory list Adamax (A–Z): Atomik Labz, Backroad Aminos, Biocollex Research, Bulk Peptide Supply, Eros Peptides, Evolve BioPep, Ion Peptide, Liberty Peptides, and 10 more. A listing is not a quality endorsement; ask for a lot-specific certificate of analysis.

Storage & handling

Follow the storage statement on the product sheet or certificate of analysis. Lyophilized (freeze-dried) peptides are generally kept cold, dry and away from light; once reconstituted, stability is shorter and depends on the compound and diluent. Bacteriostatic water contains 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a preservative; sterile water does not.

Frequently asked questions

How much bacteriostatic water for a 5 mg Adamax vial?

The diluent volume only sets the concentration: 1 mL gives 5 mg/mL, 2 mL gives 2.5 mg/mL and 3 mL gives 1.667 mg/mL. Smaller volumes are more concentrated, so each syringe unit holds more.

How much Adamax is in 10 units?

At 2 mL of diluent, 10 units (0.1 mL) of a 5 mg vial contain 250 mcg; at 1 mL they contain 500 mcg.

What is the dose of Adamax?

No FDA label or published human trial defines a dose of Adamax, so we do not publish one. Online "protocols" for it are not evidence.
