## BPC-157 reconstitution calculator

BPC-157 is a research peptide and is not FDA-approved for human use. This tool only does the arithmetic: enter the vial mg, the bac water, and your dose to see the units, mL, and doses per vial. Educational only — not medical advice.

Research peptide — not FDA-approved for human use.

"Units" are a volume marking, not a drug amount — the same units = a different mg every time the vial is mixed differently.

### Vial size × bacteriostatic water: what each combination gives you

The same vial gives a different concentration depending on how much water you add. Find your vial size and the water you added; the last column is what one milligram is worth in syringe units.

| Vial | Bac water added | Concentration | 1 mg draws |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 5 mg | 1 mL | 5 mg/mL | 20 U |
| 5 mg | 2 mL | 2.5 mg/mL | 40 U |
| 5 mg | 3 mL | 1.67 mg/mL | 60 U |
| 10 mg | 1 mL | 10 mg/mL | 10 U |
| 10 mg | 2 mL | 5 mg/mL | 20 U |
| 10 mg | 3 mL | 3.33 mg/mL | 30 U |

Units are for a standard U-100 insulin syringe, where 100 units = 1 mL. These are conversions, not dose suggestions — your dose comes from your prescriber, and this page never proposes one. For a size or volume not listed, use the calculator above.

### FAQ

#### How many units is my dose?

Units are a volume marking on the syringe, not a drug amount — on a U-100 syringe, 100 units = 1 mL. The units for any dose depend entirely on how the vial was reconstituted (mg of powder ÷ mL of bacteriostatic water). Enter your numbers above and the calculator gives the exact units.

#### How much bacteriostatic water should I add?

There's no single right amount — more water makes the solution more dilute (easier to draw, larger volume per dose) and less water makes it more concentrated. Pick a volume, enter it above, and the calculator shows the resulting concentration, units per dose, and doses per vial so you can choose a readable draw.

This tool converts the numbers you enter — it never recommends a dose. Its constants are cited below; the warnings are arithmetic checks, not clinical limits.

- Syringe "units" are a volume marking, not a drug amount: a U-100 syringe reads 100 units = 1 mL (U-40 = 40 units/mL). The calculator converts mg ↔ mL ↔ units on this standard — it never assumes units equal mg.[Standard insulin concentration, U-100 = 100 units/mL (PMC5505430) ↗](https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5505430/)
- The volume to draw is (drug ordered ÷ drug available) × the vial's total mL — i.e. dose ÷ concentration, where concentration (mg/mL) = vial mg ÷ bacteriostatic water mL. You enter every number; the tool only does this arithmetic.[Dose-volume formula — StatPearls "Dose Calculation" (Bookshelf NBK430836) ↗](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK430836/)
- An opened (punctured) multi-dose vial is dated and discarded within 28 days unless the manufacturer states otherwise.[CDC Injection Safety (per USP General Chapter ) ↗](https://www.cdc.gov/injection-safety/hcp/clinical-safety/index.html)
