Peptide therapy has gained widespread attention for its potential benefits in muscle growth, fat loss, recovery, anti-aging, and overall wellness. However, one of the most common challenges users face is accurate peptide dosing. Incorrect calculations can lead to ineffective results, wasted product, or unnecessary risks.

What Is the Jay Campbell Peptide Calculator?
The Jay Campbell Peptide Calculator is a dosage estimation tool that calculates how much peptide solution to draw into an insulin syringe after reconstitution. It converts complex peptide math into simple, actionable numbers.
This calculator helps determine:
- Concentration after reconstitution
- Amount per injection
- Syringe units needed for each dose
It is commonly used for peptides such as:
- CJC-1295
- Ipamorelin
- BPC-157
- TB-500
- GHRP peptides
- Other research peptides
Why Accurate Peptide Dosing Is Important
Peptides are measured in micrograms (mcg), while vials are often labeled in milligrams (mg). This mismatch causes confusion for many users.
Accurate dosing ensures:
- Consistent results
- Reduced waste
- Proper cycle planning
- Safer administration
- Predictable outcomes
A reliable calculator is essential for anyone following peptide protocols.
How to Use the Jay Campbell Peptide Calculator
Using the calculator requires only a few basic inputs.
Step 1: Enter Peptide Vial Amount
Input the total peptide content in the vial (for example, 5 mg or 10 mg).
Step 2: Enter Bacteriostatic Water Volume
Enter the amount of bacteriostatic water added to the vial during reconstitution (measured in milliliters).
Step 3: Enter Desired Dose
Input the desired dose per injection in micrograms (mcg).
Step 4: Get Syringe Measurement
The calculator instantly displays how many units to draw on an insulin syringe.
Peptide Dosage Formula (Plain Text)
The calculator is based on the following standard formula:
Peptide concentration (mcg per ml) = Total peptide (mg × 1000) ÷ Water added (ml)
Injection volume (ml) = Desired dose (mcg) ÷ Concentration (mcg per ml)
Syringe units = Injection volume × 100
This ensures precise and repeatable dosing.
Example Peptide Calculations
Example 1: 5 mg Peptide Vial
- Peptide amount: 5 mg
- Water added: 2 ml
- Desired dose: 250 mcg
Total peptide = 5 × 1000 = 5000 mcg
Concentration = 5000 ÷ 2 = 2500 mcg/ml
Injection volume = 250 ÷ 2500 = 0.1 ml
Syringe units: 10 units
Example 2: 10 mg Peptide Vial
- Water added: 4 ml
- Desired dose: 500 mcg
Total peptide = 10 × 1000 = 10000 mcg
Concentration = 10000 ÷ 4 = 2500 mcg/ml
Injection volume = 500 ÷ 2500 = 0.2 ml
Syringe units: 20 units
Example 3: Small Daily Dose
- Peptide amount: 2 mg
- Water added: 1 ml
- Desired dose: 100 mcg
Total peptide = 2000 mcg
Concentration = 2000 mcg/ml
Injection volume = 0.05 ml
Syringe units: 5 units
Common Peptide Dosing Mistakes
Many users make avoidable errors when calculating peptide dosages.
Common mistakes include:
- Confusing mg with mcg
- Adding too much or too little water
- Using incorrect syringe measurements
- Estimating instead of calculating
- Changing reconstitution volumes mid-cycle
The Jay Campbell Peptide Calculator eliminates these errors by automating the math.
Benefits of Using This Calculator
- Accurate syringe measurements
- Easy peptide reconstitution planning
- Reduces calculation errors
- Saves time and prevents confusion
- Ideal for beginners and advanced users
Consistency is critical in peptide protocols, and this calculator supports reliable administration.
Understanding Syringe Units
Most insulin syringes are marked with 100 units per ml.
- 10 units = 0.1 ml
- 20 units = 0.2 ml
- 50 units = 0.5 ml
The calculator converts peptide volume directly into syringe units for ease of use.
Peptide Storage and Handling Tips
Proper handling improves peptide stability and effectiveness.
- Store reconstituted peptides in a refrigerator
- Avoid repeated shaking
- Use bacteriostatic water only
- Keep vials sealed when not in use
- Discard if contamination is suspected
Correct dosing works best when paired with proper storage.
