Peptide reconstitution calculator

Pure math tool. Given a vial size and water volume, calculates the mL you'd draw to get a target dose, plus the equivalent units on a standard 100-unit insulin syringe.

This calculator is math, not medical advice.

SmartPeptide does NOT recommend doses for any peptide. Any "target dose" shown in this tool is either entered by you or reported verbatim from a published clinical trial with full citation. Trial doses come paired with screening, monitoring, and clinician oversight that you may not have. Always work with a licensed clinician before any peptide use.

Educational only — not medical advice. SmartPeptide does not prescribe, diagnose, or treat. Always consult a licensed healthcare provider before using any peptide, supplement, medication, or protocol.

Desired dose per injection. = 0.250 mg
µg (microgram) = 1/1000 of a mg. 1 mg = 1000 µg.

Fill to approximately the 5-unit mark on a 1cc / 100-unit insulin syringe.

Math reminder: Concentration = (vial mg × 1000) ÷ water mL → gives µg per mL. Draw = target dose ÷ concentration. Insulin units = mL × 100 (a 1cc syringe has 100 units). This is the same math any reconstitution chart uses. SmartPeptide provides the arithmetic only — not the choice of target dose.

Research context — SS-31 (Elamipretide)

Phase 3 trials in Barth syndrome and primary mitochondrial myopathy show meaningful improvements in muscle function in specific subgroups. Heart failure trials had mixed results. FDA approval status varies by indication and is evolving.

The above is summarized from published research. SmartPeptide does not recommend that any visitor replicate these trial doses outside of clinical-trial conditions or licensed-clinician oversight.
