how long a vial lasts is easy math and mostly the wrong number
The math is trivial: total mass / mass per draw = number of draws. 10mg vial, 500mcg per draw, 20 draws. Where it stops being useful: that assumes the limiting factor is running o…
Dosing arithmetic, reconstitution maths, and how people use the tracker.

Collected from the threads in this category over the last few months. 1. Treating syringe units as a mass. They're a volume marking. Meaningless without a concentration. 2. mg/mcg…
Written out because the errors cluster in predictable places. Mass: 1mg = 1000mcg. 1mcg = 0.001mg. Volume: 1ml = 1000 microliters. U-100 syringe, 100 units = 1ml so 1 unit = 0.01m…
Extremely common question, always asked like there's a correct number. There isn't, it's a choice with trade offs. More water: more dilute, so a given amount takes up more volume …
This is the calculation everything else depends on so here it is in full, because the failure mode is a 10x error not a small one. Three numbers and you need all three: the mass i…
