Quick answer · Community-reported standard

A 10 mg vial of GHRP-6 reconstituted with 1 mL of bacteriostatic water yields a concentration of 5.00 mg/mL. At that concentration, a 100 mcg dose of GHRP-6 equals 2 units on a U-100 insulin syringe (0.020 mL). GHRP-6 is typically administered once daily via subcutaneous.

GHRP-6 10 mg reconstitution and dosage: 1 mL vs 2 mL bac water

For a 10 mg vial of GHRP-6, bacteriostatic water volume is flexible. Less water means higher concentration and smaller injection volumes; more water means lower concentration and easier dose precision. Both options below are valid for a 10 mg vial.

GHRP-6 reconstitution & storage

Lyophilized GHRP-6 is typically reconstituted with bacteriostatic water or sterile water for injection. Research-grade vials (commonly 5 mg) are reconstituted to desired concentration. Gentle swirling rather than vigorous shaking is recommended.

Lyophilized GHRP-6 should be stored at -20 degrees C or below for long-term storage. Reconstituted solutions should be refrigerated at 2-8 degrees C and used within 2-4 weeks. Protect from light and repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

GHRP-6 dosing FAQ

How much bacteriostatic water should I add to a 10 mg vial of GHRP-6?

The community standard is 1 mL of bacteriostatic water for a 10 mg GHRP-6 vial. That gives a concentration of 5.00 mg/mL, so a 100 mcg dose is 2 units on a U-100 insulin syringe. Adding 1 mL instead doubles the concentration to 10.00 mg/mL and halves the draw to 1 units. Less water = smaller injection volume but harder to measure precisely.

How many syringe units is a 100 mcg dose of GHRP-6?

On a standard U-100 insulin syringe, a 100 mcg dose of GHRP-6 is 2 units when the 10 mg vial is reconstituted with 1 mL of bacteriostatic water (5.00 mg/mL). If you use 1 mL of bac water instead, draw 1 units (10.00 mg/mL).

What is the standard GHRP-6 dose?

Community-reported protocols for GHRP-6 typically use 100 mcg–200 mcg once daily via Subcutaneous. 100 mcg is a common starting dose. Injected on empty stomach; produces strong GH release with significant appetite increase within 20-30 minutes

How long does a vial of GHRP-6 last at 100 mcg once daily?

A 10 mg vial of GHRP-6 contains roughly 100 doses at 100 mcg per injection. At once daily dosing, that is approximately 100 days (about 14 weeks) of supply per vial. Reconstituted GHRP-6 should generally be used within 28 days when refrigerated.

Where do you inject GHRP-6?

GHRP-6 is typically injected subcutaneous. Common sites reported in the literature and by users include: Subcutaneous (abdomen, deltoid region), Intravenous (clinical research settings), Intranasal (research, lower bioavailability). Rotate sites with each injection to reduce localized irritation.

Can I use sterile water instead of bacteriostatic water for GHRP-6?

Bacteriostatic water (containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a preservative) is strongly preferred for multi-dose vials like GHRP-6 because it inhibits microbial growth and lets a single vial be used over multiple weeks. Sterile water has no preservative and should generally be reserved for single-use preparations only.
