BPC-157 dosage calculator
The BPC-157 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. BPC-157 is commonly sold in 2 mg, 5 mg, 10 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 synthetic pentadecapeptide derived from a sequence found in human gastric juice, studied for tissue repair signaling mechanisms. Enter your target dose in the calculator above to see the exact number of units to draw.

| 250 mcg | 1.66667 mg/mL | 0.15 mL | 15 |
| 500 mcg | 1.66667 mg/mL | 0.3 mL | 30 |
| 1000 mcg | 1.66667 mg/mL | 0.6 mL | 60 |
| 2000 mcg | 1.66667 mg/mL | 1.2 mL | 120 |
BPC-157 and BPC peptides
BPC-157 is a Body Protection Compound (synthetic pentadecapeptide). A synthetic pentadecapeptide derived from a sequence found in human gastric juice, studied for tissue repair signaling mechanisms.
How to reconstitute BPC-157
Reconstituting BPC-157 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 BPC-157 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 BPC-157 specifically, 2 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg vials are common. A typical reconstitution adds 2 mL of bacteriostatic water, producing a concentration of 2.5 mg/mL for the 5 mg vial size.
BPC-157 half-life and storage
Published preclinical pharmacokinetic work reports a short plasma half-life on the order of a few hours, though effects measured in tissue-healing models often extend beyond the circulating half-life.
Lyophilized BPC-157 is generally stored refrigerated at 2–8 °C or frozen for longer-term storage. Published laboratory handling notes report that reconstituted solutions are typically kept refrigerated and protected from light.
Common BPC-157 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.
