BPC-157 Reconstitution For a 5mg vial: Add 2.5mL of bacteriostatic water (BAC water) Concentration = 2mg/mL (or 2000mcg/mL) For a 250mcg dose: draw 12.5 units (0.125mL) on a U-100 insulin syringe For a 500mcg dose: draw 25 units (0.25mL) For a 10mg vial: Add 5mL BAC water Concentration = 2mg/mL (same math as above) TB-500 Reconstitution For a 5mg vial: Add 2.5mL BAC water Concentration = 2mg/mL For a 2.5mg dose: draw 125 units (1.25mL) this is a larger volume injection Consider splitting into two 62.5 unit injections if volume is uncomfortable For a 10mg vial: Add 2mL BAC water Concentration = 5mg/mL For a 2.5mg dose: draw 50 units (0.5mL) much more manageable Pro tip: TB-500 often comes in 5mg or 10mg vials
hence, their use should not be taken lightly
