Just received my dosing arithmetic order — packaging review:
- Outer box: plain brown, no medication identifiers (discreet) ✅
- Inner insulation: Styrofoam with 4 gel ice packs ✅
- Temperature: vials were cold to touch on arrival ✅
- Labeling: lot number, BUD, compound name, concentration ✅
- Included: COA, reconstitution instructions, dosing card ✅
This is what professional compounding pharmacy shipping looks like. If your order arrives without these basics, reconsider your vendor.

For anyone reconstituting dosing arithmetic peptides: the water-to-powder ratio determines your concentration. Here's my reference:
| Vial Size | BAC Water | Concentration | 0.25mg Dose |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5mg | 2mL | 2.5mg/mL | 10 units |
| 5mg | 2.5mL | 2mg/mL | 12.5 units |
| 10mg | 2mL | 5mg/mL | 5 units |
| 10mg | 3mL | 3.33mg/mL | 7.5 units |
More water = easier to measure small doses but vial runs out faster. Find the balance that works for your dose.

That reframing is the part I needed. Printing the relevant bit and taking it with me.

Compounding pharmacy dose accuracy check for dosing arithmetic: I always verify my first dose from a new vial by weighing it on a milligram scale. Draw up your dose, weigh the syringe, subtract empty syringe weight, compare to expected water weight at that volume.
For a 10-unit dose (0.1mL): expected weight ~100mg of water. If it's significantly off, your syringe may be inaccurate. Cheap insulin syringes can have ±5% volume accuracy. Spring for quality brands like BD or Terumo.

Mine went the same way, slower. Nothing to add that would improve it.
