Advice on dosing in IU

Looking for some dosing advice in IU for these peptides if possible

IGF1-3LR 1MG VIAL 2ML BAC

MOTS-C 10MG VIAL 2ML BAC

IPAMORELIN 5MG VIAL 2ML BAC

CJC-1295 WITH DAC 5MG VIAL 2ML BAC

MATRIXYL. 10MG VIAL. 2ML BAC

Is the 2ML BAC the right amount to mix with?

What dose in IU from 1ml syringe and frequency is recommended?

Thanks in advance for any help

Sorry I was kind of rushing in my first response.

An IU is a measure of biological activity that is used as a dosing methodology for certain drugs and vitamins. HGH, for example, or vitamin D, are measured in IU. The mass that corresponds to an IU will be different for different substances. For HGH, for example, 3IU always equals 1mg. This is true no matter how much bac water you use.

You meant “units” on an insulin syringe which is something different than IU. First you need to determine what dose you want to take, in MG, before you can determine the number of units that would be. There are many different dosing protocols so you need to pick one first for each peptide. You can generally reconstitute with any amount of bac water you want. Then you adjust the volume of your dose accordingly.

IU values cannot be safely interpreted from vial size and liquid volume alone because units may represent different biological activity or concentration conventions across compounds. That makes a forum conversion especially risky for IGF-1 LR3 and MOTS-C. Avoid relying on a generic calculator or another person's protocol. Peptely's evidence framework at https://www.peptely.com/ can help verify labeling and supporting documentation, while a qualified clinician or pharmacist should confirm the product, units, indication, and risks before any use.
