GLP-1 receptor agonist
Compounded semaglutide is shipped in 2 mg, 5 mg, or 10 mg lyophilized vials. The most common reconstitution is 1 mL of bacteriostatic water, giving clean unit-mark math at every standard dose step.

Long half-life (~7 days) — once-weekly dosing standard. Effects accumulate for 4-5 weeks before plateau.
After reconstitution, refrigerate at 2-8°C. Manufacturer guidance: use within 28 days. Compounded versions vary — verify with your provider.
Weight management, type 2 diabetes. Standard titration: 0.25 mg → 0.5 mg → 1.0 mg → 1.7 mg → 2.4 mg weekly, 4 weeks at each step.
The math on this page is correct for the listed vial and BAC-water volume. The decision to reconstitute and inject Semaglutide belongs to you and a clinician who knows your full history — not to a webpage.
Semaglutide most commonly ships as 2 mg or 5 mg or 10 mg of lyophilized powder. The standard reconstitution is 1 mL of bacteriostatic water, which yields clean unit-mark math on a U-100 insulin syringe for the doses used in most protocols.
The standard volume is 1 mL of bacteriostatic water. You can use more (easier to draw, lower concentration) or less (more concentrated, smaller draw volume) without changing the peptide itself — only the syringe math changes. The dose table on this page is pre-calculated for 1 mL.

U-100 insulin syringes (29–31 gauge, 8–13 mm needle) are standard for subcutaneous peptide injection. Each unit on a U-100 syringe equals 0.01 mL. The dose table above shows how many units to draw for each common dose, given the vial size and standard bacteriostatic water volume.
