What this page does
This GLP-1 reconstitution calculator starts with the values you already have: vial amount, BAC water amount, and known dose. It then calculates concentration, mL to draw, and U-100 syringe marks.

GLP-1 reconstitution calculator example
This example shows how a known GLP-1 vial amount and BAC water amount create concentration, liquid volume, and a U-100 syringe mark for a known dose.
- Vial amount
- 5 mg total
- BAC water added
- 2 mL
- Example dose
- 250 mcg
- Concentration
- 2,500 mcg/mL
- Liquid to draw
- 0.1 mL
- U-100 syringe
- 10th mark
In this example, the visual syringe guide would point to the 10th mark. Change the vial, water, or dose values in the calculator to match the exact instructions you are using.

Why the syringe mark changes
A GLP-1 dose cannot be converted to syringe marks from the dose alone. The vial amount and BAC water volume set the concentration, and concentration decides the liquid volume.
Safety limit
FDA has warned about dosing errors with compounded injectable GLP-1 products. Use this page only for measurement math from a product label, pharmacy, or licensed prescriber; it does not choose a dose or mixing protocol.
Frequently asked questions
Can this tell me how much BAC water to add?
No. Enter the exact BAC water amount from the product label, pharmacy, or licensed prescriber. PeptiCalc then calculates the concentration and syringe mark.
Is this only for semaglutide or tirzepatide?
This page is a general GLP-1 measurement calculator. For more specific search paths, use the semaglutide and tirzepatide reconstitution pages.
Can this choose or adjust a GLP-1 dose?
No. It only converts a known dose into measurement math. Dose selection, titration, route, and timing must come from a licensed medical source.
Is this a prescription or protocol?
No. PeptiCalc is a measurement calculator. It helps translate vial strength, BAC water, and a selected dose into syringe marks, but it does not prescribe treatment.
Can I edit the preloaded values?
Yes. Every value that opens in the calculator is editable, including vial amount, BAC water, syringe size, and dose.
Why do syringe marks matter?
Most U-100 insulin syringes show 100 marks per mL. The calculator converts the liquid dose into the mark to pull to on that syringe scale.
