Reconstituting a peptide involves dissolving it into a solvent to create a liquid solution. This is essential for research or clinical applications.
Important Guidelines:
- It is recommended to use Bacteriostatic Water to maintain efficacy.
- Do not use tap or filtered water.
Steps for Reconstitution:
Prepare the Vials:
- Remove the plastic cap from the peptide vial to expose the rubber stopper.
- Remove the plastic cap from the bacteriostatic water vial to expose the rubber stopper.
Prevent Contamination:
- Swab the rubber stoppers of both vials with alcohol to prevent bacterial contamination.
Measure the Water:
- Based on the volume of the peptide vial and the desired dosage, extract 1-3ml of bacteriostatic water. Ensure you understand the specific water volume required for your peptide and have a dosing schedule ready.
Combine the Water and Peptide:
- Slowly inject the measured bacteriostatic water into the peptide vial, allowing the water to enter gradually.
Dissolve the Peptide:
- Gently swirl the vial until the peptide is completely dissolved.
- Do not shake the vial, as this can affect the peptide’s integrity.
By following these steps, you ensure proper reconstitution of your peptide, maintaining its effectiveness for your research or clinical needs.
Peptide Dose Calculation
To properly dose your peptide, consider the following:
- Peptide Volume: Determine the amount of peptide in milligrams (mg).
- Reconstitution Volume: Calculate the volume of bacteriostatic water needed to dissolve the peptide.
- Needle Size: Select the appropriate needle size for administration, typically a 1ML insulin needle.
Understanding Insulin Needle Measurements
Insulin needles are labeled in units. The most common and recommended size is 1ML, marked with units in increments of 10 (e.g., 10, 20, 30,..., 100). Each small line represents 2 units.
Dosing Calculation Example
Assume you have a 1ML needle and you added 1ML of bacteriostatic water to a vial containing 10mg of peptide. The dosage calculations would be as follows:
- Filling the needle to 50 units equals a 5mg dose.
- Filling the needle to 10 units equals a 1mg dose.
- Filling the needle to 100 units equals the full 10mg dose.
Common Peptide Reconstitution and Dosing

Semaglutide 10mg
- Add 2ml of bacteriostatic water
- Dosing:
- 10 units (0.1ml) = 0.5mg
- 20 units (0.2ml) = 1mg
- 40 units (0.4ml) = 2mg
