How To Safely Use & Store Peptides

Calculate your syringe units in seconds, then follow the simple handling rules that protect potency.

Peptide Mixing Calculator

For a mcg dose, draw up to tick mark

How to Read Your Result

This calculator converts micrograms (mcg) into syringe units based on how much peptide is in your vial and how much water you added.

  • “Tick mark” = syringe unit
  • They come in 100iu, 50iu, and 30iu sizes
    • We Recommend a 50 Unit or .5ml Syringe
    • Needle gauge is irrelevant (personal choice)
    • 1/2″ in length preferred if doing Intramuscular
  • Drawing to tick mark 2 = 2 units = 0.02 mL

This tells you how far to pull the plunger — not how much peptide to take

 

Visual Reference

  • “Highlighted tick mark shows exactly where to draw”
  • “Always verify your syringe type before injecting”

 

Before You Reconstitute

  • Use the correct solvent (reference peptide product page)
    • 2ml works well for most applications
  • Inject solution slowly down the vial wall
  • Do not shake — gently roll or let dissolve

90-Second Checklist For Peptide Handing & Storage

Proper Peptide Storage

How To Safely Store Peptides When Received Vs. After Reconstituted

Before Reconstitution (Dry / Lyophilized)

Dry Peptides = Stable

  • Cool, dry, dark storage
  • Refrigerator optional (longer life), freezer not necessary
  • Heat warning (don’t leave in hot car/mailbox in extreme climates)

After Reconstitution (Mixed)

Mixed Peptides = More Fragile

  • Refrigerate
  • Avoid repeated warming/cooling cycles when possible
  • Keep away from light

Pro Tip: Don’t store on a counter ‘for convenience’—light + heat are the enemy.

4 Easy Steps For

Reconstituting Without Damaging The Peptide

Confirm Your Reconstitution Solvent

Most peptides use bacteriostatic water (0.9% benzyl alcohol) however some specify using acetic acid.

Draw Solvent with Appropriate Needle

23–25g needles draws smoothly for both solution types. 2ml of solution works well for most applications.

Inject Solvent Slowly Down Vial Wall

Keep control of plunger during the process as the vacuum created can pull the solution fast from syringe.

Dissolve Completed Solution Gently

Roll the vial between fingers or let sit to dissolve naturally. Never shake

Additional Information For Proper Use

Understanding Syringe Units (So You Don’t Guess)

How insulin syringes are measured — and what “tick marks” actually mean in real-world use.

U-100: 100 units = 1 mL

  • 10 units = 0.10 mL
  • 30 units = 0.30 mL
  • 50 units = 0.50 mL

Can You Combine Peptides in One Injection?

When it’s commonly done, when to avoid it, and how to prevent cross-contamination.

  • Often acceptable when drawn immediately before injection
  • Avoid mixing if one peptide uses acetic acid
  • Avoid cross-contamination between vials with different solvents
  • If unsure: separate injections

Traveling With Peptides (Keep It Simple)

What actually matters for short trips — and what people tend to overthink.

  • TSA generally not concerned (carry responsibly)
  • Use an insulated pouch when possible
  • Short room-temp windows are usually fine; avoid sustained heat exposure
  • Optional: pre-load for short windows (same day/overnight) if it reduces hassle
