To calculate DSIP units, divide the milligrams in the vial by the millilitres of liquid to get the concentration, divide your prescribed dose in milligrams by that concentration to get the volume, then multiply the volume in mL by 100 for units on a U-100 syringe. DSIP doses are small, so a dilute vial makes the draw easier to read. Example: a 2 mg vial with 2 mL of bacteriostatic water is 1 mg/mL, so if your prescription says 60 mcg (0.06 mg), you draw 0.06 mL, which is 6 units. Reference chart ## DSIP dosing chart in units Units to draw on a U-100 syringe for common DSIP vial sizes and water volumes. Find your vial on the left and read across to the dose on your prescription. This is a conversion table, not a dosing recommendation; a dash means the dose is larger than the vial. DSIP units to draw by vial size, bacteriostatic water and prescribed dose | Vial | Water | mg/mL | 60 mcg | 100 mcg | 150 mcg | 200 mcg | 500 mcg | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 2 mg | 1 mL | 2 | 3 | 5 | 7.5 | 10 | 25 | | 2 mg | 2 mL | 1 | 6 | 10 | 15 | 20 | 50 | | 5 mg | 1 mL | 5 | 1.2 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 10 | | 5 mg | 2 mL | 2.5 | 2.4 | 4 | 6 | 8 | 20 | | 5 mg | 2.5 mL | 2 | 3 | 5 | 7.5 | 10 | 25 | | 5 mg | 5 mL | 1 | 6 | 10 | 15 | 20 | 50 | | 10 mg | 2 mL | 5 | 1.2 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 10 | | 10 mg | 5 mL | 2 | 3 | 5 | 7.5 | 10 | 25 | Values in units (U-100). 1 unit = 0.01 mL. Already reconstituted ## Pre-mixed DSIP: reading the pharmacy label DSIP calculators online assume a 5 mg freeze-dried vial mixed with 1 or 2 mL of water, which gives 5 or 2.5 mg/mL and draws of 2 to 4 units for a microgram-range dose. A compounding pharmacy prescription usually arrives as a liquid at a lower strength, labeled in mg/mL or mcg/mL; 500 mcg/mL is the same as 0.5 mg/mL. Divide your prescribed dose in mg by the label concentration to get mL, then multiply by 100 for units: 60 mcg (0.06 mg) from a 0.5 mg/mL vial is 0.12 mL, or 12 units, a draw that is easy to read on a 0.3 mL syringe. Switch the calculator above to Pre-mixed vial and type the label strength. The label also shows the beyond-use date. Doses per vial only count until that date, so check it against how many doses the calculator says the vial holds; small DSIP doses mean a vial holds many of them. Worked example (pre-mixed vial) ``` label: 0.5 mg/mL prescription: 60 mcg (0.06 mg) 0.06 mg ÷ 0.5 mg/mL = 0.12 mL 0.12 mL × 100 = 12 units ``` Tired of reconstituting? DSIP prescribed through Peptides.build arrives already reconstituted by a licensed US 503A pharmacy, labeled with the concentration and ready to draw. Your provider tells you how many units. [See the DSIP protocol and pricing →](https://peptides.build/protocols/dsip/) Reconstitution ## How much BAC water for 5 mg or 10 mg of DSIP Use the volume your pharmacy or prescriber specifies. The water changes only the concentration, never the amount of DSIP in the vial: more water means more units for the same dose. 5 mg vial | Water | mg/mL | mcg per unit | | --- | --- | --- | | 1 mL | 5 | 50 | | 2 mL | 2.5 | 25 | | 2.5 mL | 2 | 20 | | 5 mL | 1 | 10 | 10 mg vial | Water | mg/mL | mcg per unit | | --- | --- | --- | | 2 mL | 5 | 50 | | 3 mL | 3.33 | 33.3 | | 5 mL | 2 | 20 | Reading the syringe ## When DSIP units are too small to read This is the DSIP problem. A 5 mg vial mixed with 1 mL is 5 mg/mL, so 60 mcg is 1.2 units and 100 mcg is 2 units, and a 10 mg vial mixed with 2 mL gives the same numbers. The calculator flags draws under 2 units because a half-unit error at that size is a large fraction of the dose. More water for the same vial fixes it: 5 mg in 5 mL is 1 mg/mL, so 60 mcg becomes 6 units. Whether that is appropriate for your vial is a question for your pharmacist or prescriber; do not change the amount of water on your own. A 0.3 mL syringe, marked every unit or half unit, is the right tool for draws under 30 units. New to syringe units? The [general peptide calculator](https://peptides.build/tools/peptide-calculator/) has a units-to-mL table and a side-by-side of 0.3, 0.5 and 1 mL syringes. Common questions ## DSIP calculator FAQ ### How many units of DSIP do I draw? Units = dose (mg) ÷ concentration (mg/mL) × 100. For a 2 mg vial mixed with 2 mL (1 mg/mL), a prescription of 60 mcg is 0.06 mL, or 6 units on a U-100 syringe. The dose itself comes from your prescription. ### What does DSIP stand for? Delta sleep-inducing peptide, a nine-amino-acid peptide first isolated in sleep research. The name describes where it was found, not an outcome you should expect; your provider decides whether it fits your protocol. ### How much bacteriostatic water do I add to 5 mg of DSIP? Use the volume your pharmacy or prescriber specifies. The water does not change the amount of DSIP, only the concentration: 1 mL makes 5 mg/mL (50 mcg per unit), 2 mL makes 2.5 mg/mL (25 mcg per unit) and 5 mL makes 1 mg/mL (10 mcg per unit). Peptides.build prescriptions arrive pre-mixed, so patients never add water. ### Why is my DSIP draw only 1 or 2 units? Because the vial is concentrated relative to a microgram dose. At 5 mg/mL every unit carries 50 mcg, so small prescriptions land at 1 to 2 units, which is hard to measure. A more dilute vial, or a pre-mixed pharmacy vial at 0.5 or 1 mg/mL, gives a longer draw for the same dose. Ask the pharmacy rather than adding water on your own. ### My DSIP vial came pre-mixed. How do I convert my dose to units? Read the concentration on the pharmacy label, for example 0.5 mg/mL (500 mcg/mL). Divide your prescribed dose in mg by it to get mL, then multiply by 100: 0.06 mg ÷ 0.5 mg/mL = 0.12 mL = 12 units. Choose Pre-mixed vial in the calculator to do this automatically. ### Does the time of day change the math? No. When a dose is taken is part of the schedule your prescriber sets, and it does not change the units you draw. The calculator converts an amount into a volume; the timing comes from your prescription. ### How should DSIP be stored once mixed? Follow the storage line on the pharmacy label. Reconstituted peptides are typically kept refrigerated, not frozen, and used before the beyond-use date. Do not use a vial that looks cloudy or has particles; contact the pharmacy. ### Is DSIP FDA-approved? No. DSIP is not FDA-approved for any use, and compounded medications are not FDA-approved. When it is prescribed, a licensed provider decides whether it is appropriate for the individual patient. ### Is DSIP allowed in competitive sport? DSIP is not named on the World Anti-Doping Agency Prohibited List, but the list's S0 category covers any pharmacological substance with no current approval for human therapeutic use, which can apply to non-approved peptides. Drug-tested athletes should check with their governing body before using it. ### Does this calculator tell me how much DSIP to take? No. It performs arithmetic only and does not recommend a dose or schedule. The dose, timing and vial strength come from your prescription and pharmacy label. Prescribed, not mixed at home ## Get DSIP already reconstituted A licensed US provider reviews a short online intake and sets your dose. A US 503A pharmacy prepares it, labels the concentration and ships it cold-chain, ready to draw. This calculator performs arithmetic only. It does not recommend doses and is not medical advice. DSIP is not FDA-approved, and compounded medications are not FDA-approved. Always follow the dose, concentration and schedule on your prescription and pharmacy label, and confirm any calculation with your pharmacist or prescriber before injecting.
