Epithalon reconstitution calculator and reference
Also spelled Epitalon. Both spellings refer to the same peptide.
Short answer: add 2 mL of bac water to a 10 mg Epithalon vial. A 5 mg amount then measures about 100 units on a 1 mL (U-100) insulin syringe.
To mix a 10 mg vial of Epithalon, add about 2 mL of BAC water. Now each 1 mL of liquid holds 5 mg of peptide. So a 5 mg dose is about 100 units on a 1 mL insulin syringe. Want a rounder number? Add a little more or a little less water.
What nobody knows
- How much, if any, is safe for a person.
- Whether it does anything in people, and what it does over the long term.
- What is actually in your vial: the powder's identity, purity, and strength.

What you cannot know about your vial
- You cannot see what is really inside. Independent testing in this market has found research powders that were mislabeled, weaker or stronger than the label, or contaminated. An unlabeled vial tells you nothing you can verify.
- “Research-grade” is not a standard. It is not a grade anyone checks. It does not promise that the powder is Epithalon, that it is pure, or that the amount matches the label.
- No calculation fixes this. The math here is exact for the numbers you type. It cannot tell you whether the powder in your vial matches what is printed on it.
What is Epithalon?
Epithalon is a small lab-made peptide (it is made of four building blocks, so it is called a tetrapeptide). It is studied in longevity and cellular research.
It is commonly researched in cycles. Reconstitution follows the standard method.
Longevity research peptides are reconstituted using the standard method. Once mixed, they follow the same refrigerated shelf-life rules as other peptides.
How much bac water for Epithalon?
The chart below is a Epithalon reconstitution chart: each common vial size, the bac water to add, and where a 5 mgmeasurement lands on a 1 mL insulin syringe. Use the calculator above for your exact vial and the amount you want to measure.
| Vial amount | Bac water to add | Concentration | Amount to measure | Syringe units |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 mg | 2 mL | 5 mg/mL | 5 mg | 100 units |
| 20 mg | 1 mL | 20 mg/mL | 5 mg | 25 units |
| 50 mg | 1 mL | 50 mg/mL | 5 mg | 10 units |
The amount in the “Amount to measure” column is an example chosen so the math is easy to follow. It is not a recommended amount, and this site does not recommend how much to use. Units assume a U-100 insulin syringe (100 units = 1 mL). Always confirm the amount printed on your own vial.
How to reconstitute Epithalon
- 1Gather your supplies
Wash your hands and lay out your Epithalon vial, a vial of bacteriostatic water, an insulin syringe, and alcohol prep pads on a clean surface.
- 2Swab both vial tops
Wipe the rubber stopper of both the peptide vial and the bacteriostatic water vial with separate alcohol prep pads. Let them air dry.
- 3Draw the bacteriostatic water
For a 10 mg vial, draw about 2 mL of bacteriostatic water. Use the calculator on this page to match your exact vial strength.
- 4Add water to the peptide vial
Insert the needle at an angle and let the water run slowly down the inside wall of the vial. Do not spray it directly onto the powder.
- 5Swirl gently
Roll or swirl the vial between your palms until the powder fully dissolves. Roll it, do not shake it, if your product's instructions say so. The solution should look clear.
- 6Label and refrigerate
Label the vial with the peptide name, the date mixed, and the expiration date, then refrigerate it immediately.
Storage and shelf life
Keep in the fridge. Once you add bac water, the peptide slowly breaks down, so refrigerate the vial and discard it if the solution turns cloudy or develops particles.
