Epithalon
How to reconstitute the 10 mg vial and convert any target dose into insulin units. Reconstitution math and unit conversions for the 10 mg and 30 mg vials. Epithalon has very limited human data and no validated dose; the short-course figures shown are community-reported and anecdotal.
No validated human dose. Epithalon is a research-use peptide with no FDA-approved dose. The reconstitution math below is exact measurement — a calculator, not advice. Any usage figures are community-reported and clearly labeled, and none of this is medical advice.
Calculate for your vial
Enter the mg on your Epithalon vial, the bacteriostatic water you added, and your target dose — it works out the exact units to draw on a U-100 insulin syringe, for whatever you personally have.

200 units exceeds one U-100 syringe — add more water to lower the concentration.
Check the decimal. A misplaced decimal point here is a 10× dosing error. Re-read every number, and confirm your dose with a licensed clinician before you draw.
Educational only — not a dosing recommendation. This tool does the measurement math; it does not tell you what to take. On a U-100 insulin syringe, 100 units = 1 mL.
1 · Find your dose
Pick what you're using Epithalon for and how much bacteriostatic water you added — this pulls out the exact units to draw and how often people report using it.
to draw 5 mg–10 mg at 2 mL water
5 mg/mL · 50 mcg per unit

- Once daily during the course
- Cycle

200 units exceeds one U-100 syringe (100 units). Add more bacteriostatic water to lower the concentration, or split the measurement.
2 · Reconstitute it cleanly, step by step
How to turn the 10 mg powder into a measured liquid with clean, sterile technique. More water means each insulin unit holds less peptide — easier to measure small amounts accurately.
1Swab the stoppers
Wipe the rubber top of each vial with an alcohol pad and let it air-dry.
2Draw the water
Pull your bacteriostatic water up into the insulin syringe.
3Reconstitute
Inject it slowly down the inside wall of the peptide vial — never straight onto the powder.
4Swirl to dissolve
Gently swirl until the powder fully dissolves into a clear liquid. Never shake.
5Equalize, then draw
To draw a dose: push in an equal amount of air first to equalize the pressure, then pull your dose.

Swab both tops
Wipe the rubber top of the bacteriostatic-water vial and the Epithalon vial stopper with a fresh alcohol pad, and let them air-dry. Never touch the needle or the stoppers after wiping.

Draw the water
First pull 2 mL of air into the syringe and inject it into the bacteriostatic-water vial to equalize the pressure, then draw your 2 mL of water back out. Inject it into the Epithalon vial down the inside glass wall, not onto the powder.

Swirl, don't shake
Gently swirl the 10 mg vial until the powder fully dissolves into a clear liquid. Never shake — shaking can damage the peptide and foam the solution.

Know your strength
The vial is now 5 mg/mL. Each unit on a U-100 syringe holds about 50 mcg.
5 mg/mL - 5
Re-swab & draw your dose
Wipe the stopper again. With a fresh insulin syringe, pull back 200 units of air and inject it into the vial to equalize the pressure, then draw 200 units (2 mL) for a 10 mg dose.
200 units - 6
Store it right
Keep the mixed vial in the fridge, away from light. Use a new sterile syringe every time, never share, and drop used sharps in a proper container.

4 · Everyday usage
Epithalon's human evidence is very limited and comes mainly from one Russian research group. The pattern below reflects the short courses described in that work — not a validated or recommended dose.
Short course (community / Russian research)
Community-reported · anecdotalMost write-ups describe a short, defined course (e.g. a daily injection for ~10–20 days), sometimes repeated a couple of times per year rather than continuously.
- Reported amount
- 5 mg–10 mg≈ 100–200 units @ 2 mL
- Frequency
- Once daily during the course
- Cycle
- ~10–20 day course, occasionally repeated (community)
Community-reported and anecdotal, echoing short courses described by the Khavinson/St. Petersburg group. Epithalon is not FDA-approved, human data are very limited, and there is no validated dose — this is not a recommendation.
Frequently asked questions
How many insulin units is 5 mg of Epithalon from a 10 mg vial?
- Reconstituting a 10 mg vial with 2 mL of bacteriostatic water gives 5 mg/mL — about 50 mcg per unit. Drawing 5 mg is 1 mL, or 100 units on a U-100 insulin syringe. This is measurement math, not a dose recommendation.
How many insulin units is 10 mg of Epithalon from a 10 mg vial?
- Reconstituting a 10 mg vial with 2 mL of bacteriostatic water gives 5 mg/mL — about 50 mcg per unit. Drawing 10 mg is 2 mL, or 200 units on a U-100 insulin syringe. This is measurement math, not a dose recommendation.
Is there an established dose of Epithalon?
- No. Epithalon's human evidence is very limited and mostly from a single Russian research group, with no FDA approval and no validated dose. The figures here are community-reported and anecdotal. Dosing decisions belong with a licensed clinician.
WikiPeps is a community reference. Reconstitution figures are deterministic measurement math; usage figures are sourced and labeled. Nothing here is medical advice, a recommendation, or an offer to sell peptides — dosing decisions belong with a licensed clinician.
