Tirzepatide Reconstitution Calculator
The numbers below are pre-computed for a 30 mg vial of Tirzepatide. Doses reported in the literature and in research protocols for Tirzepatide sit around 2.5 → 15 mg, subcutaneous. Pep-Tidy does the arithmetic only — it is not medical or dosing advice.
How much water to add to a 30 mg Tirzepatide vial
| Bacteriostatic water | Concentration | Per U-100 unit | Units for 2.5 mg |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 mL | 30 mg/mL | 300 mcg | 8.3 units |
| 2 mL | 15 mg/mL | 150 mcg | 16.7 units |
| 3 mL | 10 mg/mL | 100 mcg | 25 units |
| 5 mL | 6 mg/mL | 60 mcg | 41.7 units |
Tirzepatide units to draw at 2 mL
Reading a 30 mg vial reconstituted with 2 mL of bacteriostatic water on a U-100 insulin syringe.
| Dose | Volume | U-100 units | Doses per vial |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1.25 mg | 0.083 mL | 8.3 units | 24 |
| 2.5 mg | 0.167 mL | 16.7 units | 12 |
| 3.75 mg | 0.25 mL | 25 units | 8 |
| 5 mg | 0.333 mL | 33.3 units | 6 |
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.

Tirzepatide reconstitution questions
How do you reconstitute Tirzepatide?
A common starting point for a 30 mg vial of Tirzepatide is 2 mL of bacteriostatic water, which gives 15 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 Tirzepatide is one dose?
At 15 mg per mL, that works out to about 16.7 units on a U-100 insulin syringe for a 2500 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 Tirzepatide?
Published and community sources describe 2.5 → 15 mg, subcutaneous, once weekly, typically run 20 weeks on. These figures describe what has been reported, not what anyone should take — talk to a licensed clinician first.
How should Tirzepatide be stored?
Lyophilized Tirzepatide 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.
