5-Amino-1MQ dosage calculator
The 5-Amino-1MQ dosage calculator above converts a target dose into exact syringe units based on your vial size and how much bacteriostatic water you used to reconstitute it. 5-Amino-1MQ is commonly sold in 50 mg, 100 mg vials. The calculator supports both U-100 and U-40 insulin syringes and flags draws that are too large for the syringe barrel or too small to measure accurately. A small-molecule inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase studied for its effect on intracellular NAD+ availability. Enter your target dose in the calculator above to see the exact number of units to draw.

| 3.8 mg | 16.66667 mg/mL | 0.228 mL | 22.8 |
| 7.5 mg | 16.66667 mg/mL | 0.45 mL | 45 |
| 15 mg | 16.66667 mg/mL | 0.9 mL | 90 |
| 30 mg | 16.66667 mg/mL | 1.8 mL | 180 |

How to reconstitute 5-Amino-1MQ
Reconstituting 5-Amino-1MQ is the same unit-conversion process used for any lyophilized peptide:
- Draw your chosen volume of bacteriostatic water into a syringe.
- Inject the bacteriostatic water slowly down the side of the 5-Amino-1MQ vial — do not shoot it directly onto the powder.
- Swirl gently until the powder fully dissolves. Do not shake.
- Store the reconstituted vial refrigerated.
- To dose, calculate your draw volume: divide your target dose by the concentration (vial mg ÷ water mL = mg/mL). The calculator above does this automatically.
For 5-Amino-1MQ specifically, 50 mg, 100 mg vials are common. A typical reconstitution adds 2 mL of bacteriostatic water, producing a concentration of 50 mg/mL for the 100 mg vial size.
5-Amino-1MQ half-life and storage
Published pharmacokinetic data on 5-amino-1MQ in humans is limited. As a small molecule, it is generally reported to have a plasma half-life on the order of hours in preclinical models.
Lyophilized 5-amino-1MQ is typically stored refrigerated or frozen. Reconstituted solutions are commonly refrigerated and protected from light.
Common 5-Amino-1MQ dosing mistakes
- Confusing mg and mcg. 1 mg = 1,000 mcg. Always convert to the same unit before computing the draw.
- Using a U-40 syringe with U-100 math. Same printed mark, 2.5× the physical volume. Always check the syringe label.
- Not labeling the vial. Write the reconstitution date and concentration on the vial the moment you mix it.
- Under-diluting. If your draw is less than about 1 unit, the volume is too small to read accurately — add more bacteriostatic water next time.
