Peptide Calculator (concentration, volume and syringe units)
A 10 mg vial with 2 mL of diluent is 5 mg/mL, so 0.25 mg occupies 0.05 mL — 5 units on a U-100 syringe.

Worked example
Example: 10 mg vial + 2 mL → 5 mg/mL; 0.25 mg ÷ 5 = 0.05 mL = 5 units.
How it works
1. Concentration
Divide the vial content (mg) by the diluent volume (mL) to get mg/mL.
2. Volume
Divide the amount you need (mg) by the concentration to get mL.
3. Syringe units
Multiply mL by 100 for units on a U-100 syringe.
Frequently asked questions
How do I calculate peptide units?
Concentration = vial mg ÷ diluent mL; volume = amount ÷ concentration; units = volume × 100 on a U-100 syringe.
Does the amount of water change the dose?
No. Water only changes concentration, and therefore how many units hold a given amount. The amount in the vial is fixed.
Does this calculator recommend a dose?
No. It converts numbers you enter. Dosing decisions belong to a licensed clinician.
