Reconstitution and administration Reconstitution for 10-day cycle: 100mg vial: Add 2ml bacteriostatic water = 50mg/ml 10mg daily dose: Draw 0.2ml (20 units on insulin syringe) 5mg daily dose: Draw 0.1ml (10 units) One 100mg vial = complete 10-day cycle at 10mg/day Step-by-step reconstitution: Clean vial stopper with alcohol wipe Draw 2ml bacteriostatic water into syringe Inject water slowly down side of vial (don't spray directly on powder) Gently swirl (don't shake - causes aggregation) Refrigerate reconstituted Epithalon Use within 30 days (standard peptide shelf life ) Injection technique: Clean injection site with alcohol Pinch skin to create fold Insert needle at 45-degree angle (subcutaneous) Inject slowly over 5-10 seconds Similar to other peptide injections Rotate sites daily ( abdomen, thighs, upper arms ) Storage requirements: Before reconstitution: Freeze or refrigerate lyophilized powder After reconstitution: Refrigerate 2-8C always Never freeze reconstituted peptides (destroys structure) Protect from light (keep in box) Standard peptide storage practices Use our peptide reconstitution calculator and free calculator for exact measurements
