Frequently Asked
How do I reconstitute Matrixyl?
Add 2 mL of bacteriostatic water to a 100 mg vial, injecting slowly down the inside wall. Swirl gently; never shake. This yields a concentration of 50 mg/mL.
What is the recommended dose of Matrixyl?
A typical research dose is 5 mg. Consult the ASCEND calculator for your specific vial concentration and draw volume.
How many doses are in a Matrixyl vial?
A 100 mg vial reconstituted with 2 mL BAC water yields approximately 20 doses at 5 mg each.
How many IU is 5 mg of Matrixyl on a syringe?
With a 100 mg vial reconstituted in 2 mL bacteriostatic water, the concentration is 50 mg/mL. For a 5 mg dose: Volume = 5 mg ÷ 50 mg/mL = 0.1 mL. Draw to the 10 line on a 100-unit insulin syringe. You can adjust these values in the ASCEND calculator for any vial size.
What does a Matrixyl dosage calculator do?
A Matrixyl dosage calculator converts your vial size and BAC water volume into an exact syringe draw in IU. Enter your vial strength (100 mg), reconstitution volume (2 mL), and target dose to get the precise line to draw on an insulin syringe.
What is the Matrixyl reconstitution calculator formula?
Draw volume (mL) = Dose (mg) divided by Concentration (mg/mL). For a 100 mg vial with 2 mL BAC water: concentration = 50 mg/mL. For a 5 mg dose, the ASCEND calculator gives the exact IU line on your syringe instantly.
