10 mg vial
Adipotide: a 10 mg vial
What a 10 mg vial of Adipotide becomes once it is mixed, and what each dose reported in the sources draws to on a syringe. Every figure is arithmetic on the vial size in the heading — none of it is a recommendation, and the doses are the ones our sources describe rather than ones we picked.
Leading with
10 mg + 3 mL bacteriostatic water = 3.333 mg/mL
Chosen because it puts the reported doses on readable marks of a 1 mL U-100 syringe. Other volumes are perfectly valid — the dilution table further down covers them, and the concentration changes what every dose draws to.
What each reported dose draws to
At 3.333 mg/mL, on a 1 mL U-100 syringe. Every row names the source it came from, and a trial protocol and a community convention are not the same kind of information.
| Goal | Dose | Units | Doses in this vial | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Primate study protocolOnce daily for 28 days · Subcutaneous | 430 mcg | 12.9 units | 23 | Published review |
| Commonly described community protocolDaily for a course of two to four weeks · Subcutaneous | 500 mcg – 1 mg | 15 units – 30 units | 20 | Community practice |
Check every figure against the vial in front of you before drawing. Vials are filled with an overage and labels are not a guarantee. Change any of these numbers in the calculator.
If you add a different amount of water
The same 10 mg of compound, at four common volumes. More water means a larger, easier-to-measure draw of a weaker solution; less water means the opposite. The amount of compound you inject is identical in every row — only the volume carrying it changes.

| 2 mL | 5 mg/mL | 8.6 units units · 0.086 mL |

Storage
Before mixing
Refrigerated at 2–8 °C, protected from light.
After mixing
Refrigerated at 2–8 °C. Do not freeze once mixed.
Arithmetic on the vial size named above and the doses our sources report. Nothing here is a recommendation, a protocol or medical advice, and no clinician has reviewed it. Some rows describe community practice, which is not evidence that a dose is safe or effective. Speak to a licensed healthcare provider before acting on any of it.
Sources for the doses above are listed in full on the Adipotide profile, each with the trial or label it came from.
