SNAP-8 Dosage Calculator & Research Doses

1Set Up Your Mix

20 mg/mL · 20000 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?

All answers assume a standard 1 mL U-100 syringe, where 1 unit = 0.01 mL. That is the usual insulin syringe and the one every number here is based on.

10 mg ÷ 0.5 mL = 20 mg/mL → 500 mcg ÷ 20 mg/mL = 0.025 mL → × 100 = 2.5 units—

This calculator doesn't work for SNAP-8. Doses for this one are set by body weight, or it comes ready-mixed. Ignore the numbers above — read the notes further down instead.

No week-by-week plan for SNAP-8. This one is dosed by body weight, comes ready-mixed, or only has a single dose reported — so there is nothing to work up through.
