How Do You Reconstitute Tesamorelin?

Use the volume the calculator returns above and add bacteriostatic water to your vial based on its size.

  • If your vial is 2 mg, add 1 ml of bacteriostatic water.
  • If your vial is 5 mg, add 2.5 ml of bacteriostatic water.
  • If your vial is 10 mg, add 5 ml of bacteriostatic water.
  • Gently swirl the vial to dissolve. Do not shake. Refrigerate after reconstitution.

What Is the Concentration of Tesamorelin in Your Vial?

Concentration is held constant across every vial size so your unit count never changes.

  • 2 mg vial reconstituted with 1 ml BAC water = 0.02 mg per unit.
  • 5 mg vial reconstituted with 2.5 ml BAC water = 0.02 mg per unit.
  • 10 mg vial reconstituted with 5 ml BAC water = 0.02 mg per unit.
  • One unit on a 1 ml insulin syringe always equals 0.02 mg of Tesamorelin, regardless of vial size.

How Many Units of Tesamorelin Do You Inject Per Day?

Draw to the unit line on your insulin syringe, not to a milligram figure. The Tesamorelin dose is constant, not a range.

  • Daily dose: 25 units per day on a 1 ml insulin syringe.
  • In milligrams: 0.50 mg of Tesamorelin per injection.
  • No titration: the dose stays at 25 units throughout all 3 months of the cycle.
  • After Month 3: continue with the same 25 units protocol for all future cycles.

Draw to the 25 unit line on a 1 ml insulin syringe. 1 unit equals 0.02 mg of Tesamorelin at the standard reconstitution.

When Do You Inject Tesamorelin?

Inject on the schedule the calculator returns above.

  • Injection site: subcutaneous, abdomen.
  • Timing: at night.
  • Frequency: 5 days on, 2 days off.
  • Site rotation: rotate the exact spot within the same abdominal area each session.

What Is the Cycle for Tesamorelin?

Tesamorelin is a cycled protocol with a structured pause between rounds.

  • On phase: 3 months of active dosing at 25 units per day.
  • Off phase: 2 months pause.
  • Repeat: patients typically run 2 to 3 full cycles per year.
  • Why the off phase matters: the 2 month break preserves pituitary responsiveness across multiple cycles. Continuous dosing past 3 months flattens response.

Clinical tip: the Tesamorelin dose stays constant at 25 units throughout the entire 3 month on phase. There is no week-by-week titration. After Month 3, continue with the same Month 3 protocol for every subsequent cycle.

Why Calculate Your Tesamorelin Dose at Perfect B Aesthetic Medicine and Not at Home

A calculator gives you the numbers. A clinic gives you the answer to whether those numbers are safe for you. The protocol behind the tool above runs the same way for every patient at Perfect B Aesthetic Medicine, and that is what separates a supervised cycle from a guess at the kitchen counter.

  • Pharmacy-grade sourcing: your Tesamorelin is dispensed through a licensed compounding pharmacy. Identity, purity, and sterility are documented. Grey-market online vials carry none of those guarantees.
  • Pre-protocol screening: labs, medical history, and contraindications are reviewed before a single vial is prescribed. Visceral fat baseline, IGF-1, fasting glucose, and lipid panel anchor the decision.
  • Measured response: Tesamorelin works on visceral fat. Response is tracked by InBody scan, waist circumference, and IGF-1, not by guesswork.
  • Reconstitution done right: a mistake at the BAC water step changes your dose by an order of magnitude. The clinic walks you through the first reconstitution so the math is correct from injection one.
  • Real follow-up: the 3 month cycle is monitored. If response plateaus or visceral fat does not move, the clinic catches that early instead of three cycles later.
  • Florida-based clinical context: Perfect B Aesthetic Medicine is the clinic with the most peptide patients seen in Florida. That volume means every parameter in the calculator has been pressure-tested across thousands of real cycles.

You can run the calculator at home. You should not run the protocol at home. The numbers are accurate, but they are only safe inside a clinical relationship that screens you, supervises you, and adjusts when your physiology calls for it.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the correct Tesamorelin dose for you?

25 units per day on a 1 ml insulin syringe, equal to 0.50 mg per day at the standard reconstitution. The dose is constant, not a range.

2. How do you reconstitute your Tesamorelin vial?

Add 1 ml of bacteriostatic water for a 2 mg vial, 2.5 ml for a 5 mg vial, 5 ml for a 10 mg vial. Gently swirl to dissolve, do not shake.

3. Where do you inject Tesamorelin?

Subcutaneous, in the abdomen. Rotate the exact spot within the same area each session.

4. Is this calculator a substitute for a consultation?

No. It surfaces the parameters the supervised protocol uses. The protocol itself starts with a medical evaluation, contraindication screening, and a written prescription from Perfect B Aesthetic Medicine.
