Reconstitution & Storage

5 mg + 1 mL → 5000 mcg/mL

Low dose, so 2.5 mL is convenient.

Dosing reference — units to draw

Concentration = peptide mass ÷ bacteriostatic water; units to draw = dose volume (mL) × 100 on a U-100 insulin syringe. Each vial size below is shown at 1 mL, with the units to draw for a typical 500–1000 mcg dose.

DSIP FAQ

How do you reconstitute DSIP?

Add 1 mL of bacteriostatic water to a 5 mg vial of DSIP, which gives a concentration of 5000 mcg/mL. Inject the water slowly down the vial wall and swirl gently — never shake.

What is a typical DSIP dose?

A typical research dose of DSIP is 500–1000 mcg, 1x per day before sleep. This is educational information, not medical advice.

How many units of DSIP do I draw?

From a 5 mg vial reconstituted with 1 mL of bacteriostatic water, draw 10–20 units on a U-100 insulin syringe for a 500–1000 mcg dose.
