How to Reconstitute MGF

Updated today

MGF is supplied as a 5 mg lyophilized (freeze-dried) vial and must be reconstituted with bacteriostatic water before use. Adding 2 mL to a 5 mg vial yields a concentration of 2.5 mg/mL — so a 250 mcg reference dose is 10 units on a standard U-100 insulin syringe. Use more water for a more dilute, easier-to-measure solution, or less for a more concentrated one; the amount of compound in the vial is the same either way. Adjust the calculator below to match your exact vial size and target dose.
