The important details, first.

RECONSTITUTION

Vial size + diluent

Vial size	Diluent / amount	Final concentration
15 mg	1.5 mL BAC water	10 mg/mL

Reconstitution syringe: Use a 3 cc syringe to measure and add bacteriostatic water. The U-100 insulin syringe is used only afterward for drawing and administering the prepared dose at the unit mark listed in the dosing table.

MEASURING GUIDE

Volume and syringe conversion

Reference	Volume	Equivalent
1 unit	0.01 mL	0.1 mg

VIALS NEEDED

Protocol planning

Duration	Vials needed
4 weeks	1–2 vials
8 weeks	2–3 vials
12 weeks	3–5 vials
16 weeks	4–6 vials

Vial counts are calculated from the dosing schedule shown above and rounded up to whole vials. They are planning estimates and do not include extra allowance for wastage.

STORAGE

How to keep it correctly.

Storage item	Direction	Notes
Lyophilized	Store frozen at –20 °C	Protocol storage.
After reconstitution	2–8 °C	Use within 2–4 weeks.

ADMINISTRATION

Where, when, and how.

Item	Guidance	Notes
Route	Subcutaneous	Protocol route.
Syringe	U-100 insulin syringe	1 unit = 0.01 mL = 0.1 mg.
Frequency	Once weekly	Follow the selected titration approach.
High-volume row	120 units = 1.20 mL total	This reproduces the verified protocol value. Confirm the appropriate administration device and volume with a qualified clinician rather than assuming it fits in one U-100 syringe.

Do not guess syringe units.

Syringe units measure volume, not milligrams. The correct draw amount changes when the vial strength or reconstitution volume changes.

FAQ + RESEARCH

Only the questions that help.

Where does PepTalk information come from?+

ALLU organizes product reference material, available research, and safety information into one easier-to-read guide. Information should be verified against the specific product and current evidence before being used as personal medical guidance.

What if my question is not answered here?+

For product or order questions, contact ALLU support. For personal medical questions, suitability, symptoms, interactions, or dose decisions, use the doctor consultation option.

Can I copy someone else's protocol?+

No. A protocol that suits another person may not be appropriate for you, and vial strengths or preparation methods can differ. Use information that matches your exact product and seek individualized guidance when needed.

Research & references+

PepTalk is designed to separate established clinical information from research-stage or community information. The full reference layer will be added as each product guide is validated.
