215.2 mg vial

Cerebrolysin: a 215.2 mg vial

What a 215.2 mg vial of Cerebrolysin 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

215.2 mg + 1 mL bacteriostatic water = 215.2 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 215.2 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.

CheckSome doses above need more compound than a 215.2 mg vial holds, so one dose spans more than one vial. A larger vial is usually the cheaper and more accurate answer than combining two.

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 215.2 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.

Storage

Before mixing

Supplied as a solution in ampoules rather than a powder. Store below 25 °C, protected from light.

After mixing

Use immediately once an ampoule is opened. It contains no preservative.
