DSIP Dosage Calculator & Research Doses

1Set Up Your Mix

3.333 mg/mL · 3333 mcg/mL

1. Pick your peptide

2. How much peptide is in the vial? It's printed on the label — usually something like 5 mg

3. How much water are you adding? More water makes each dose easier to measure

4. How much do you want per dose?

Your Answer — DSIP

10 mg in 3 mL

100Doses In The Vial

10 mg ÷ 3 mL = 3.333 mg/mL → 100 mcg ÷ 3.333 mg/mL = 0.03 mL → × 100 = 3 units

Looks good. Draw to 3 units on a 1 mL syringe. That is an easy amount to measure, and this vial gives you 100 doses.

When to dose

Time of dayAt night, shortly before bed.

FoodWith or without food.

DSIP is delta sleep-inducing peptide — the whole point is sleep onset, so it is taken at bedtime. Dosing it during the day works against what it is for.

Where this plan came from

Built from this peptide's dose range

Where this came from: Built from the doses listed for this peptide below — start at the lowest and step up, using the studies cited on this page. Nobody publishes a week-by-week plan for this peptide, so we built one: the doses are the researched ones shown below, and we simply put them in order from lowest to highest. Treat it as a starting point, not an official schedule.

Common Questions — DSIP

How much bacteriostatic water do I add to a 10 mg vial of DSIP?

Adding 3 mL of bacteriostatic water to a 10 mg vial gives 3.33 mg/mL. That is the mix every number on this page is worked out from — change the water figure in the calculator and all the draw amounts update.

What dose of DSIP is used in research?

Published and reported figures for DSIP run from 100 mcg to 300 mcg, typically pre-sleep. This site lists each figure with the source it came from rather than giving a single recommended number.

How many units on the syringe is a 100 mcg dose of DSIP?

At 3.33 mg/mL, a 100 mcg dose is 3 units on a 1 mL U-100 insulin syringe. One vial at that mix gives about 100 doses.

How strong is the evidence behind these DSIP doses?

DSIP is graded limited. The figures are sparse — a single programme or community-reported numbers. We grade every compound on this site so you can weigh the numbers accordingly — the full method is on our editorial policy page.
