IGF-1 LR3 dosage calculator
Enter your dose, the IGF-1 LR3 vial size and the water amount you added to see the units to draw with a U-100 insulin syringe.
Use this only for reference. Your dose is set by your prescriber or the product label; we only convert it into units.
- vial sizes on the market
- 10 mg and 1 mg
- status of approval
- It is not FDA-approved.
- a sample mix of 1 mg and 1 mL
- 1 mg per mL
The math for IGF-1 LR3
To find the strength, divide the amount in the vial by the water. When you add 1 mL of water to a 1 mg vial, each mL holds 1 mg. First divide your dose by that strength to find the mL; then multiply by 100 to get the units for a U-100 syringe.
A 50 mcg dose from that vial measures 0.05 mL, or 5 units.
IGF-1 LR3 units: a quick guide
| Your dose | 1 mg vial + 1 mL | 10 mg vial + 2 mL |
|---|---|---|
| 100 mcg | 10 units | 2 units |
| 150 mcg | 15 units | 3 units |
| 200 mcg | 20 units | 4 units |
| 250 mcg | 25 units | 5 units |
| 300 mcg | 30 units | 6 units |
| 400 mcg | 40 units | 8 units |
| 500 mcg | 50 units | 10 units |
| 750 mcg | 75 units | 15 units |
| 1 mg | 100 units | 20 units |
For each vial and water, a cell shows the amount to draw on a U-100 syringe.
So, is IGF-1 LR3 FDA-approved?
It isn't FDA-approved for any use in people; it is sold as a research chemical. Since no FDA label exists, no official dose is set. All we do is convert a dose you already have.
Questions people often ask
For a vial of 1 mg IGF-1 LR3, how much water do I add?
You choose the amount of water; it only changes the strength of each mL. Using 1 mL gives you 1 mg per mL; add more water and every unit holds less, so small doses are easier to measure.
How many units is a 1 mg IGF-1 LR3 dose?
This depends on how strong your mix is. At 1 mg/mL, 1 mg equals 100 units. Put your vial and water details into the calculator to find your number.
How long does IGF-1 LR3 keep once it is mixed?
Follow the storage instructions given for your product or prescription. Bacteriostatic water itself, per CDC guidance, should be used within 28 days, starting with the first needle.
