Melanotan-2 Reconstitution: Concentration vs Dose Comparison
10mg 1mL 10mg/mL 0.025mL / 2.5 units 0.05mL / 5 units 0.1mL / 10 units High concentration. Smallest volumes, hardest to measure accurately below 5 units 2mL 5mg/mL 0.2mL / 20 units Optimal for most protocols. Dose volumes fall on clear syringe graduations 2.5m

- 0.0625mL / 6.25 units
- 0.125mL / 12.5 units
- 0.25mL / 25 units
- Lower concentration. Larger volumes, easier measurement but requires more storage space
- 5mg
- Smaller vial, same concentration as 10mg/2mL. Useful for single-dose trials
- Notice how concentration determines injection volume: the same 0.5mg dose requires 5 units from a 10mg/mL solution but 10 units from a 5mg/mL solution. Researchers aiming for doses below 0.5mg should avoid concentrations above 5mg/mL. Measuring 2–3 units accurately on a standard insulin syringe is difficult even with steady hands.
