How do you calculate how long a peptide vial will last?
Divide the total amount in the vial by the amount entered per use to find how many full entered amounts fit in the vial. Then divide the number of full uses by the entered uses per week to estimate arithmetic supply duration.
Does adding more bacteriostatic water make a vial last longer?
No. Adding liquid changes concentration and draw volume, but it does not change the total amount originally in the vial. The number of full entered amounts depends on total vial amount divided by the amount entered per use.
Does this calculator tell me how long a reconstituted vial is stable?
No. Supply duration and storage or stability are different questions. This tool calculates quantity and schedule coverage only; it does not estimate sterility, chemical stability, beyond-use dating, or storage life.
Can the calculator handle multiple vials?
Yes. Enter the number of same-size vials in the supply and the calculator will total their amount before estimating full entered amounts and duration.
Can I use mg and mcg together?
Yes. Milligrams and micrograms are both mass units, so the calculator normalizes them before doing the division. IU is kept separate because there is no universal IU-to-mass conversion.
Does this calculator recommend an amount or frequency?
No. Both values come entirely from what the user enters. BACToBasics does not use this tool to recommend dosing, treatment, preparation, or frequency.
