Each row is one dose, the volume to draw and where that sits on a U-100 insulin syringe. The last three columns show which syringe sizes can hold it in one draw.
| Dose | Volume | Syringe units | 0.3 mL syringe | 0.5 mL syringe | 1 mL syringe |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 mg Reported low end | 0.25 mL | 25 units | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| 1.28 mg Egrifta WR label | 0.32 mL | 32 units | No | Yes | Yes |
| 1.4 mg Egrifta SV label | 0.35 mL | 35 units | No | Yes | Yes |
| 2 mg Original Egrifta label | 0.50 mL | 50 units | No | Yes | Yes |

How to mix a 10 mg Tesamorelin vial
- Wash your hands. Wipe the stopper of the Tesamorelin vial and the water vial with an alcohol swab.
- Draw 2.5 mL of bacteriostatic water into a syringe.
- Push the needle through the stopper of the peptide vial and let the water run slowly down the glass, not straight onto the powder.
- Swirl the vial gently until the powder is gone. Do not shake it.
- Write the date and 4 mg/mL on the vial, then put it in the fridge.
If you add a different amount of water
More water makes each dose a bigger, easier draw. Less water makes it smaller. The milligrams in the vial do not change.
| Water added | Concentration | 1 mg | 1.28 mg | 1.4 mg | 2 mg |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 mL | 10 mg/mL | 10 units | 12.8 units | 14 units | 20 units |
| 2 mL | 5 mg/mL | 20 units | 25.6 units | 28 units | 40 units |
| 2.5 mL | 4 mg/mL | 25 units | 32 units | 35 units | 50 units |
| 3 mL | 3.3333 mg/mL | 30 units | 38.4 units | 42 units | 60 units |
The marked row is the amount used in the chart above. Red cells are draws under 5 units, which are hard to read, or over 100 units, which one 1 mL syringe cannot hold.
