1. Preparation and Measurement

Melanotan-2 10mg With 2mL of Diluent

Add 2mL of bacteriostatic water to the vial. The resulting concentration is 5mg/mL. On a U-100 syringe, each unit contains 50mcg.

10mg / 2mL = 5mg/mL
1 U-100 unit = 0.01mL = 50mcg

Preparation

  1. Draw 2mL of bacteriostatic water using sterile equipment.
  2. Let the liquid run slowly down the inside wall of the vial.
  3. Gently swirl until dissolved. Do not shake.
  4. Label with the preparation date and refrigerate.

Check the calculation with the peptide calculator.
