Simple U-100 rule
On a U-100 syringe, 1 mL equals 100 marks. That means 0.25 mL is 25 marks and 0.5 mL is 50 marks.

mL to units calculator example
This example creates a 0.25 mL draw, which lands on the 25th U-100 syringe mark. The calculator also shows how much compound that volume contains.
- Vial amount
- 5 mg total
- BAC water added
- 2 mL
- Example dose
- 625 mcg
- Concentration
- 2,500 mcg/mL
- Liquid to draw
- 0.25 mL
- U-100 syringe
- 25th mark
In this example, the visual syringe guide would point to the 25th mark. Change the vial, water, or dose values in the calculator to match the exact instructions you are using.

Why concentration still matters
mL only tells you liquid volume. To know the compound amount in that volume, the calculator still needs vial strength and BAC water.
Best use
Use this page when your instructions mention mL but your syringe is marked on a U-100 scale.
Frequently asked questions
How many U-100 units are in 0.25 mL?
On a U-100 syringe, 0.25 mL equals 25 syringe marks. The amount of compound at that mark depends on concentration.
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.
