TB-500 Dosage Calculator

A synthetic fragment related to Thymosin Beta-4, studied for recovery and flexibility research.

Syringe

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.

Show the math — every step, with your numbers
  1. Concentration: 5 mg ÷ 2 mL = 2.50 mg/mL (2500 mcg/mL)
  2. Dose volume: 2500 mcg ÷ 2500 mcg/mL = 1.000 mL
  3. Syringe units: 1.000 mL × 100 = 100 units

How much water should I add?

The same 2500 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.

Calculated on a U-100 insulin syringe (100 units = 1 mL). This is reconstitution arithmetic for TB-500, not a dosing recommendation. Verify against your product label and a qualified professional.

About TB-500 dosing

TB-500 (TB-500) is a synthetic fragment related to Thymosin Beta-4, studied for recovery and flexibility research. It is commonly sold in 2 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg vials. Commonly-cited community and research protocols reference a range of 1,0005,000 mcg, often dosed a few times per week in cited protocols. Higher microgram doses than BPC-157; a larger bac water volume makes the draw easier to read.

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 TB-500; adjust the inputs to match your own vial and the units update instantly.

TB-500 calculator — FAQ

How do I reconstitute TB-500?+

Higher microgram doses than BPC-157; a larger bac water volume makes the draw easier to read. 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 TB-500 dose?+

Commonly-cited protocols reference 1,000–5,000 mcg, often dosed a few times per week 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 TB-500 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.
