Vial Supply Calculator

Last updated . Reviewed by The Peptide Directory Editorial Team

A vial containing 10 mg holds 40 draws of 0.25 mg each (10 ÷ 0.25 = 40), before any dead-space loss.

Totals for the FDA-label escalations

Worked totals for the first four four-week steps of each label schedule we reproduce (four weekly uses per step). They show the arithmetic, not a recommendation.

Worked example

Example: 10 mg vial, 0.25 mg per draw → 10 ÷ 0.25 = 40 draws.

How it works

  1. 1. Enter vial content

    Total amount in the vial, in mg.

  2. 2. Enter amount per draw

    The amount removed each time, in mg.

  3. 3. Divide and round down

    Draws = vial mg ÷ mg per draw, rounded down to a whole number. Real-world dead space reduces this.

Frequently asked questions

How many draws are in a vial?

Divide the vial content by the amount per draw and round down. A 10 mg vial holds 40 draws of 0.25 mg, before losses.

Why is the real number lower?

Some liquid is lost in the vial, needle hub and syringe dead space.

Does this recommend how much to use?

No. It divides numbers for inventory planning only.
