Reconstitution & Storage

5 mg + 2 mL → 2500 mcg/mL

Inject BAC water slowly down the vial wall. Swirl gently — never shake.

Dosing reference — units to draw

Concentration = peptide mass ÷ bacteriostatic water; units to draw = dose volume (mL) × 100 on a U-100 insulin syringe. Each vial size below is shown at 2 mL, with the units to draw for a typical 250–750 mcg dose.
