IGF-1 DES Dosage Calculator
Calculate IGF-1 DES peptide dosing, reconstitution volume, and syringe draw units. This calculator performs math conversions only — IGF-1 DES is not FDA-approved. It does not recommend doses for unsupervised use.

Important Notes
- IGF-1 DES is a research compound with no FDA-approved dose for human use
- Half-life: ~20-30 minutes
- Common administration: subcutaneous or intramuscular injection
- Frequency: 1-2x daily (post-workout in research)
- Maximum researched dose: 150 mcg per administration
- Side effects vary by compound — discuss any reactions with a healthcare provider
- This calculator performs math conversions only — not medical advice
Reconstitution Calculator
Calculate how much bacteriostatic water to add and how many units to draw on your syringe for your IGF-1 DES dose.

How Reconstitution Works
- Determine concentration: Divide peptide amount by water volume (e.g., 5 mg ÷ 2 mL = 2.5 mg/mL)
- Calculate draw volume: Divide your dose by concentration
- Convert to syringe units: Multiply mL by 100 for U-100 syringes
- Verify syringe capacity: Ensure the draw volume fits your syringe
Example Calculation
Vial: 5 mg IGF-1 DES
Water: 2 mL bacteriostatic
Dose: 50 mcg
Syringe: 100U (1 mL)
Concentration: 5 mg ÷ 2 mL = 2.5 mg/mL
Draw volume: See calculator output
