Ipamorelin: Reconstitution Math & Reference

By · Last updated

How do you reconstitute ipamorelin?

Ipamorelin reconstitution is arithmetic: divide vial mass (mg) by added bacteriostatic water (ml) to get mg/ml. A 5 mg vial in 2 ml BAC water gives 2.5 mg/ml. Drawing 8 units on a U-100 syringe (0.08 ml) then delivers 200 mcg. The calculator below does it for any numbers you type.

What is Ipamorelin?

Ipamorelin is a 5-amino-acid synthetic peptide and a selective growth hormone secretagogue.

Ipamorelin has been studied in animal models and small clinical trials exploring growth hormone release. It is not FDA-approved for human use.

Ipamorelin commonly ships as 2 mg or 5 mg lyophilized vials. Reconstitution follows the standard vial-mass-over-water-volume formula.

Research protocols often pair ipamorelin with CJC-1295 (no-DAC). In the Peptly app they are separate profiles in the library, and each entry records which one it is for.

Vial BAC water Concentration Example dose U-100 units
2 mg 1 ml 2 mg/ml 200 mcg 10 units
2 mg 2 ml 1 mg/ml 200 mcg 20 units
5 mg 2 ml 2.5 mg/ml 200 mcg 8 units

Storage and shelf-life

Most research protocols refrigerate reconstituted ipamorelin at 2–8 °C and use within 2–4 weeks. Lyophilized powder typically stores at −20 °C until reconstitution.

Frequently asked questions

How is ipamorelin reconstitution math different from BPC-157? +

It is not — both follow the same vial-mass-over-water-volume formula. The practical difference is that ipamorelin doses tend to be small (100–300 mcg), so unit counts on a U-100 syringe land in the single-digit to teens range.

Can I log ipamorelin and CJC-1295 together in Peptly? +

Yes, with Peptly Pro: logging more than one peptide (stacks) is part of Pro, and each entry records which peptide it is for, so your history keeps them apart. The free version covers one peptide.

What BAC water volume makes the most readable unit count for ipamorelin? +

For a 5 mg vial, 2 ml gives 2.5 mg/ml — a 200 mcg dose lands at 8 units, easy to read on a U-100 scale. The calculator on this page shows the unit count as you change the water volume.

How long does reconstituted ipamorelin stay viable? +

Most research protocols use reconstituted ipamorelin within 2–4 weeks when refrigerated at 2–8 °C. Peptly does not provide stability advice — consult peer-reviewed sources or a licensed clinician.

Is ipamorelin approved for human use? +

No. Ipamorelin is not FDA-approved for human use. This page is a math reference and the Peptly app is a log — neither is medical advice.
