    About the Semaglutide Dosage Calculator

    Semaglutide research vials are typically 2 mg, 3 mg, 5 mg, or 10 mg of lyophilized peptide. Because protocols titrate weekly through 0.25 mg → 0.5 mg → 1 mg → 1.7 mg → 2.4 mg, you want a reconstitution volume that makes every step in the titration draw as a clean number of insulin units.

    Enter the mg in your vial, the bacteriostatic water you'll add, and the current step of your titration. The calculator returns the mg/mL concentration, the mL to draw, and the equivalent U-100 insulin units. Save each step and the calculator will keep track of how many doses remain in the vial.

    Example: a 5 mg semaglutide vial reconstituted with 2 mL of bacteriostatic water yields 2.5 mg/mL. A 0.25 mg dose is 0.1 mL (10 units), a 0.5 mg dose is 0.2 mL (20 units), a 1 mg dose is 0.4 mL (40 units), and so on — a very readable titration.

    How to prepare Semaglutide

    1. Draw the intended volume of bacteriostatic water into a sterile syringe.
    2. Slowly inject the water down the inside wall of the semaglutide vial — never directly onto the lyophilized powder.
    3. Gently swirl (do not shake) until the powder is fully dissolved and the solution is clear.
    4. Store the reconstituted vial refrigerated at 2–8°C and use within the peptide's stability window.
    5. Use the concentration and dose volume calculated above to draw each research dose into an insulin syringe.

    Frequently asked questions

    How do I reconstitute semaglutide?

    Add bacteriostatic water to the semaglutide vial using the volume the calculator recommends for your desired concentration. Slowly inject the water down the side of the vial, swirl gently, and store the vial refrigerated.

    What bacteriostatic water volume should I use for semaglutide?

    Common choices are 1 mL, 2 mL, or 3 mL of bacteriostatic water. The right volume depends on your vial strength and target dose — use the calculator above to get a concentration that lets you draw your dose in whole insulin units.

    What is a typical research dose range for semaglutide?

    Reported research dose ranges for semaglutide are 0.25 mg to 2.4 mg weekly, titrated slowly. Always verify against current literature — this tool is for research reference only, not medical advice.

    How long is semaglutide stable after reconstitution?

    Once reconstituted with bacteriostatic water and stored refrigerated (2–8°C), most peptides remain stable for roughly 28–30 days. Check the specific stability data for semaglutide for your batch.

    Can I use this semaglutide calculator with any insulin syringe?

    Yes. The calculator supports U-100 syringes in 30, 50, and 100-unit capacities and shows both the mL dose volume and the equivalent insulin units for whichever syringe you choose.
