How the Hexarelin math works
A 5 mg vial holds 5,000 mcg of Hexarelin. Adding 2 mL of bacteriostatic water spreads that over 2 mL, so the solution is 5,000 ÷ 2 = 2,500 mcg per mL. A U-100 insulin syringe has 100 units per mL, so each unit is 0.01 mL and holds 2,500 × 0.01 = 25 mcg.
To turn an amount into units, divide it by the amount per unit. The calculator above does this for you, and warns you when a draw is too small to measure or bigger than the syringe.
Hexarelin concentration by vial size and water volume
Each cell shows the concentration and how much one U-100 unit holds. The app's reference lists 2 mL for a 5 mg vial.

Before you reconstitute
Check the vial label for the actual amount of peptide, because the calculation depends on it. Use an insulin syringe marked U-100 so that 100 units equal 1 mL, and write down how much water you added so the concentration is known later.
For what Hexarelin is, how it is thought to work and what the research shows, see the Hexarelin reference page. For how its evidence compares with other peptides, see the peptide tier list.
Frequently asked questions
How much BAC water goes in a 5 mg Hexarelin vial?
The reconstitution reference in the PeptidesAI app lists 2 mL for a 5 mg vial, which makes 2,500 mcg/mL. The water volume is a choice, not a fixed rule: more water makes a weaker solution and larger draws, and the total amount of peptide in the vial stays the same.
How much is one unit of Hexarelin on an insulin syringe?
It depends on the concentration. A 5 mg vial with 2 mL of water is 2,500 mcg/mL, so one unit on a U-100 syringe (0.01 mL) holds 25 mcg. The table on this page shows other vial and water combinations.
What vial sizes does Hexarelin come in?
The PeptidesAI app lists 2 mg, 5 mg vials for Hexarelin. Use the calculator's vial field for any other size.
Does this calculator tell me how much to use?
No. It converts an amount you already have into syringe units and millilitres. It does not suggest an amount, and nothing on this page is medical advice.
