How much bacteriostatic water do I add to a epithalon vial?

Use the volume in your product's instructions or from your prescriber or pharmacist. The water doesn't change how much epithalon is in the vial, only the concentration: a 10 mg vial with 2 mL is 5 mg/mL, and adding more water makes each unit on the syringe hold less.

How do I convert epithalon from mg to syringe units?

Divide the amount in mg by the concentration in mg/mL to get mL, then multiply by 100 for a U-100 insulin syringe (50 for U-50, 40 for U-40). The calculator on this page does it when you enter the amount from your prescriber or label.

How should I store epithalon after mixing?

Follow the vial label. Research products don't come with FDA-reviewed stability data, so keep the vial away from heat and light, write the mixing date on it, and don't use it if the solution turns cloudy or has particles.

Research use, not FDA-approvedLongevity and mitochondrial

Epithalon (also spelled epitalon) is a synthetic tetrapeptide, alanine-glutamic acid-aspartic acid-glycine.

Research use, not FDA-approved. Epithalon has no current FDA-approved label, so there is no official dose and this page doesn't list one. Products sold for “research use only” are not reviewed by the FDA for identity, purity or sterility. This page is arithmetic only. If you have a lab report, our COA guide shows how to check it.

Math only, not dosing advice. Follow your prescriber or label. Real vials give slightly less than the full-draw count: a little liquid stays in the vial and needle. Your last setup is saved in this browser only; Clear removes it.

Save your vial in Caliper and it remembers the concentration and use-by date you entered, alongside your dose log. The calculator above is a browser tool and is not part of the app.

Save my vial in Caliper

The calculator starts with a 10 mg vial and 2 mL of diluent as an example setup, not a recommendation. Enter the vial size on your label and the volume you actually added. The amount field starts empty: Caliper never suggests an amount.

Epithalon concentration by vial size

Vial mg ÷ mL of diluent = mg per mL. Plain arithmetic for epithalon label sizes; the volumes are examples, not recommendations.

Epithalon: mg/mL by vial size and diluent volume
Vial	1 mL	2 mL	3 mL
10 mg	10 mg/mL	5 mg/mL	3.333 mg/mL
20 mg	20 mg/mL	10 mg/mL	6.667 mg/mL
50 mg	50 mg/mL	25 mg/mL	16.667 mg/mL

Syringe units to mg at 5 mg/mL

What a given number of U-100 units holds when a 10 mg vial has 2 mL added. This is a unit conversion, like a map scale, not a dose. A different vial size or volume changes every row, so use the calculator for your own numbers.

10 mg vial + 2 mL (5 mg/mL): conversion only
U-100 units	mL	mg	mcg
5 units	0.05	0.25	250
10 units	0.1	0.5	500
20 units	0.2	1	1,000
25 units	0.25	1.25	1,250
50 units	0.5	2.5	2,500

Mixing and storing epithalon

Epithalon vial sizes range widely. A 10 mg vial with 2 mL is 5 mg/mL, while a 50 mg vial with 3 mL is about 16.7 mg/mL, so the same draw holds more than three times as much. Always enter the size printed on the vial in hand.

Add the diluent slowly down the inside wall of the vial and let the powder dissolve; swirling gently is gentler on the peptide than shaking. Use the volume your instructions give, and enter that same volume in the calculator.

Research vials don't come with FDA-reviewed storage or stability data. Follow the storage line on the vial label, keep the vial away from heat and light, and write the date on it when you mix it. Our storage guide covers fridge temperatures, use-by dates and travel.

FAQ

How much bacteriostatic water do I add to a epithalon vial?: Use the volume in your product's instructions or from your prescriber or pharmacist. The water doesn't change how much epithalon is in the vial, only the concentration: a 10 mg vial with 2 mL is 5 mg/mL, and adding more water makes each unit on the syringe hold less.

Does this page give a epithalon dose?: No. Epithalon has no current FDA-approved label, so there is no official dose, and this page doesn't list one. The calculator only converts the numbers you enter.
Is epithalon FDA-approved?: Not an FDA-approved drug for any use. Vials sold as "research use only" are not reviewed by the FDA for identity, purity or sterility.
How should I store epithalon after mixing?: Follow the vial label. Research products don't come with FDA-reviewed stability data, so keep the vial away from heat and light, write the mixing date on it, and don't use it if the solution turns cloudy or has particles.
