Melanotan II peptide calculator
Pre-filled Melanotan II dosage and reconstitution math: a 10 mg vial, 2 ml of bacteriostatic water, and the resulting U-100 insulin-syringe units. Adjust the inputs below or open the full calculator.
How to reconstitute Melanotan II
- Wipe both vial stoppers with a fresh alcohol swab and let them dry.
- Draw 2 ml of bacteriostatic water into a syringe.
- Insert the needle at an angle into the Melanotan II vial and let the water run slowly down the inner wall — do not inject directly onto the powder.
- Do not shake. Gently swirl the vial until the peptide fully dissolves.
- Store the reconstituted vial refrigerated (2–8 °C / 36–46 °F) and use within roughly 28 days.
- Draw each dose to the unit mark shown above for your target 250 mcg dose.
About Melanotan II
Melanotan II is a synthetic analog of alpha-MSH that stimulates melanogenesis (skin darkening) and is studied for its effects on libido and appetite via the melanocortin system.
Half-life: Approximately 33 hours
Typical dose range: Loading: 250–500 mcg daily. Maintenance: 500–1000 mcg 1–2x weekly.
Class: Synthetic alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) analog
Melanotan II calculator FAQ
Is this a Melanotan II peptide calculator or a reconstitution calculator?
Both. This Melanotan II calculator converts vial strength, bacteriostatic-water volume, and target dose into milliliters and insulin-syringe units. It does not recommend a medical dose.
How much bacteriostatic water for a 10 mg Melanotan II vial?
This page is pre-filled with 2 ml of bacteriostatic water for a 10 mg Melanotan II vial because that is a common research ratio. You can adjust the water amount in the full calculator.
How many units is a 250 mcg Melanotan II dose?
With the default 10 mg vial and 2 ml BAC-water ratio, the preview above calculates the U-100 syringe units for a 250 mcg dose. Change the dose if your protocol uses a different amount.
Does this Melanotan II dosage calculator give medical advice?
No. It only performs unit math. Dosing, titration, and whether Melanotan II is appropriate are clinical decisions that should be made with a licensed healthcare professional.
