1. Determine the Volume of BAC Water
Your clinic will give you exact instructions, but most standard peptide vials use 1–2 mL of BAC water.
This amount helps the peptide dissolve properly and makes dosing easier to measure.
Example (for understanding only):
A 5 mg vial mixed with 2 mL of BAC water yields 0.25 mg per 0.1 mL on the syringe.
Your clinic’s prescribed dose always overrides general math.
2. Draw BAC Water Correctly
Use a 1 mL or 3 mL syringe with a 29–31 gauge needle.
- Insert the needle into the BAC water vial
- Pull back the plunger slowly to draw the recommended amount
- Tap the syringe gently to remove large air bubbles
- Push out excess air before moving on
3. Add BAC Water to the Peptide Vial
- Insert the needle slowly down the inside wall of the peptide vial
- Let the water run gently over the powder - not directly onto it
- This prevents foaming and protects the peptide’s structure
Allow the vial to rest for about 20 minutes at room temperature so the powder can fully dissolve.
4. Check for Complete Dissolution
- If particles remain, gently roll the vial between your palms
- ⚠️ Never shake the vial - shaking can damage or denature the peptide
The mixture should look clear once fully dissolved.
5. Label and Store Properly
Once the peptide is fully dissolved:
Label the vial with:
- Peptide name
- Date of reconstitution
- Expiration date (typically 30 days unless your clinic specifies otherwise)
Then store the vial immediately in the refrigerator.
Key Takeaways
- Always follow your clinic’s specific dosing and handling instructions
- Use only sterile equipment
- Handle vials gently to protect peptide integrity
- Proper storage is essential for potency and safety
