CJC-1295 / Ipamorelin dose calculator

Quick math example

A 10 mg blended vial mixed with 2 mL gives 5,000 mcg/mL of total peptide. A 250 mcg dose is 0.05 mL, or 5 units on a U-100 syringe.

How the blend calculation works

CJC-1295 and Ipamorelin are often sold pre-blended in a single vial, with the label listing the total milligram amount across both compounds. Concentration math uses that total figure.

Once concentration is known, the draw volume for any target dose is straightforward division.

• 10 mg blend = 10,000 mcg total
• 10,000 mcg / 2 mL = 5,000 mcg per mL
• 250 mcg target = 0.05 mL draw

10 mg blend with 2 mL example

A common blend is labelled 5 mg CJC-1295 + 5 mg Ipamorelin, a 10 mg total. Mixed with 2 mL that gives 5,000 mcg/mL of combined peptide.

A 250 mcg combined dose is 0.05 mL, or 5 units on a U-100 syringe. Because the draw is so small, a U-100 insulin syringe makes the 5-unit mark much easier to hit accurately.

• 5 mg + 5 mg = 10 mg total = 10,000 mcg
• 10,000 mcg / 2 mL = 5,000 mcg per mL
• 250 mcg / 5,000 mcg per mL = 0.05 mL = 5 U-100 units

Same blend with 3 mL for an easier draw

If a 5-unit draw feels too small to measure, add more water. The same 10 mg blend in 3 mL gives about 3,333 mcg/mL.

Now a 250 mcg dose is 0.075 mL, which rounds to roughly 7-8 units — a slightly larger, easier-to-read draw for the identical dose.

• 10 mg / 3 mL = 3,333 mcg/mL
• 250 mcg / 3,333 mcg per mL = 0.075 mL
• More water trades a smaller draw for an easier-to-read one

Note on labelled ratios

Blended vials are typically labelled as a 1:1 ratio of CJC-1295 to Ipamorelin, but check your specific label. The calculator works on the total peptide mass; if your protocol calls for a specific component dose, work from the labelled ratio first.
