Units per dose at 166.67 mg/mL

Insulin syringes are graduated in hundredths of a millilitre, so units = mL × 100 on a U-100, U-50 or U-30 barrel alike.

How this is calculated

  1. 1 · Concentration

    500 mg ÷ 3 mL = 166.67 mg/mL

    The peptide mass never changes — bacteriostatic water only sets how concentrated the solution is, and therefore how far the plunger travels.

  2. 2 · Volume for a 100 mg dose

    100 mg ÷ 166.67 mg/mL = 0.6 mL

  3. 3 · Insulin units

    0.6 mL × 100 = 60 units

    Every unit on the barrel carries 1666.7 mcg at this concentration, so misreading by one unit is a 1666.7 mcg error.

Common questions

How much bacteriostatic water for a 500 mg NAD+ vial?
Adding 3 mL of bacteriostatic water to a 500 mg NAD+ vial yields 166.67 mg/mL — 1666.7 mcg in every insulin unit. The reconstituted vial holds 300 units of solution in total.
How many units is a 100 mg dose of NAD+ at 500 mg in 3 mL?
100 mg is 0.6 mL of this mix, which is 60 units on a U-100 insulin syringe (a U-100 barrel is enough).
How many 100 mg doses does a 500 mg vial give?
A 500 mg vial contains 5 full 100 mg doses. Using more or less bacteriostatic water changes the units you draw, never the number of doses in the vial.
