Units per dose at 3.33 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.
| Dose | Volume | U-100 units | Fits | Doses per vial |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 250 mcg | 0.075 mL | 7.5 u | U-30 | 40 |
| 500 mcg | 0.15 mL | 15 u | U-30 | 20 |
| 1 mg | 0.3 mL | 30 u | U-30 | 10 |
| 1.7 mg | 0.51 mL | 51 u | U-100 | 5 |
| 2.4 mg | 0.72 mL | 72 u | U-100 | 4 |
How this is calculated
1 · Concentration
10 mg ÷ 3 mL = 3.33 mg/mL
The peptide mass never changes — bacteriostatic water only sets how concentrated the solution is, and therefore how far the plunger travels.
2 · Volume for a 2.4 mg dose
2.4 mg ÷ 3.33 mg/mL = 0.72 mL
3 · Insulin units
0.72 mL × 100 = 72 units
Every unit on the barrel carries 33.3 mcg at this concentration, so misreading by one unit is a 33.3 mcg error.

The interactive calculator draws this 3.33 mg/mL mix on a scaled U-100 barrel, shows when a draw lands exactly on a printed tick, and works backwards from a target dose to the water volume that makes it land cleanly.

- How much bacteriostatic water for a 10 mg Semaglutide vial?
- Adding 3 mL of bacteriostatic water to a 10 mg Semaglutide vial yields 3.33 mg/mL — 33.3 mcg in every insulin unit. The reconstituted vial holds 300 units of solution in total.
- How many units is a 2.4 mg dose of Semaglutide at 10 mg in 3 mL?
- 2.4 mg is 0.72 mL of this mix, which is 72 units on a U-100 insulin syringe (a U-100 barrel is enough).
- How many 2.4 mg doses does a 10 mg vial give?
- A 10 mg vial contains 4 full 2.4 mg doses. Using more or less bacteriostatic water changes the units you draw, never the number of doses in the vial.
