Lipo-B Reconstitution Calculator
The numbers below are pre-computed for a 120 mg vial of Lipo-B. Doses reported in the literature and in research protocols for Lipo-B sit around ~12 mg (0.5–1 mL) per injection, im / subcutaneous. Pep-Tidy does the arithmetic only — it is not medical or dosing advice.
How much water to add to a 120 mg Lipo-B vial
| Bacteriostatic water | Concentration | Per U-100 unit | Units for 12 mg |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 mL | 120 mg/mL | 1.2 mg | 10 units |
| 2 mL | 60 mg/mL | 600 mcg | 20 units |
| 3 mL | 40 mg/mL | 400 mcg | 30 units |
| 5 mL | 24 mg/mL | 240 mcg | 50 units |
Lipo-B units to draw at 10 mL
Reading a 120 mg vial reconstituted with 10 mL of bacteriostatic water on a U-100 insulin syringe.
| Dose | Volume | U-100 units | Doses per vial |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6 mg | 0.5 mL | 50 units | 20 |
| 12 mg | 1 mL | 100 units | 10 |
| 18 mg | 1.5 mL | over syringe capacity | 6 |
| 24 mg | 2 mL | over syringe capacity | 5 |
Mixing and storage notes
- Aim the water down the inside wall of the vial, never straight onto the powder, and let it dissolve without shaking.
- Keep lyophilized vials at 2–8 °C and out of light; reconstituted vials are refrigerated and commonly discarded after about 28 days.

Lipo-B reconstitution questions
How do you reconstitute Lipo-B?
A common starting point for a 120 mg vial of Lipo-B is 10 mL of bacteriostatic water, which gives 12 mg per mL. Aim the water down the inside wall of the vial, let it dissolve on its own, and roll gently instead of shaking. Pep-Tidy's reconstitution calculator will recalculate the numbers for any other vial size or water volume you use.
How many units of Lipo-B is one dose?
At 12 mg per mL, that works out to about 100 units on a U-100 insulin syringe for a 12000 mcg dose. Change the vial size, water volume, or target dose in the calculator and the syringe reading updates with it. This is arithmetic, not a dosing recommendation.
What dosing schedule is reported for Lipo-B?
Published and community sources describe ~12 mg (0.5–1 mL) per injection, im / subcutaneous, once weekly, typically run 8 weeks on and 2 weeks off. These figures describe what has been reported, not what anyone should take — talk to a licensed clinician first.
How should Lipo-B be stored?
Lyophilized Lipo-B vials are generally kept at 2–8 °C and out of light. Once reconstituted with bacteriostatic water they are refrigerated and commonly discarded after about 28 days. Never re-freeze a reconstituted vial and never shake it.
