DSIP Dosage Calculator
Delta sleep-inducing peptide, studied in sleep and stress research.
Total amount printed on the vial label.
Changes concentration only — your dose stays the same.
250 mcg = 0.25 mg
1 mL barrels are sold marked two ways: 0–100 insulin units (U-100) or 0–1 mL (tuberculin / luer). Same volume — 100 units = 1 mL — so the result below gives you both readings.
1.0 mL (100-unit) · top row = insulin units, bottom row = mL · smallest mark = 2 units · check yours, gradations vary by brand
Show the math — every step, with your numbers
- Concentration: 5 mg ÷ 2 mL = 2.50 mg/mL (2500 mcg/mL)
- Dose volume: 250 mcg ÷ 2500 mcg/mL = 0.100 mL
- Syringe units: 0.100 mL × 100 = 10 units
How much water should I add?
The same 250 mcg dose from your 5 mg vial, at each water volume. More water spreads the dose over more units, which is easier to read accurately. Tap a row to use it.
✓ = the draw lands exactly on a mark of your 1.0 mL (100-unit) syringe — no eyeballing between gradations.
Calculated on a U-100 insulin syringe (100 units = 1 mL). This is reconstitution arithmetic for DSIP, not a dosing recommendation. Verify against your product label and a qualified professional.

Concentration for each vial size when reconstituted with 2 mL of bacteriostatic water. Change the water amount in the calculator to see other concentrations, or open the full reconstitution chart to compare every dose and water volume at once.
| Vial size | Bac. water | Concentration | Per unit (0.01 mL) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 mg | 2 mL | 1.00 mg/mL | 10.0 mcg |
| 5 mg | 2 mL | 2.50 mg/mL | 25.0 mcg |
About DSIP dosing
DSIP (DSIP) is delta sleep-inducing peptide, studied in sleep and stress research. It is commonly sold in 2 mg, 5 mg vials. Commonly-cited community and research protocols reference a range of 100–500 mcg, before bed in cited protocols. Low microgram doses; a generous bac water volume improves draw accuracy.
Remember that the number of syringe units for any dose depends entirely on how much bacteriostatic water you add. The calculator above is pre-filled with a common setup for DSIP; adjust the inputs to match your own vial and the units update instantly.

DSIP calculator — FAQ
How do I reconstitute DSIP?+
Low microgram doses; a generous bac water volume improves draw accuracy. Add your chosen amount of bacteriostatic water to the vial, swirl gently (never shake), and use the calculator above to convert your target dose into insulin-syringe units.
What is a common DSIP dose?+
Commonly-cited protocols reference 100–500 mcg, before bed in cited protocols. These are references for the arithmetic, not a prescription — confirm with your product label and a qualified professional.
How many units of DSIP should I draw?+
That depends on your vial size and how much bacteriostatic water you added. Enter both into the calculator above along with your dose and it shows the exact units on a U-100 insulin syringe.
