Syn-Ake Reconstitution Calculator
Reconstitute a 10 mg vial of Syn-Ake with 2 mL of bacteriostatic water for a concentration of 5.00 mg/mL — meaning one unit on a U-100 insulin syringe (0.01 mL) holds 50 mcg. Adjust the inputs below for your own vial and dose.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I reconstitute Syn-Ake?expand_more
Add 2 mL of bacteriostatic water to the 10 mg Syn-Ake vial for a concentration of 5.00 mg/mL. Inject the water slowly down the vial wall and swirl gently — do not shake.
How many units is a Syn-Ake dose on an insulin syringe?expand_more
At 5.00 mg/mL, one unit on a U-100 syringe (0.01 mL) holds 50 mcg. Divide your target dose in mcg by 50 to get the number of units to draw.
What is the typical Syn-Ake research dose?expand_more
Syn-Ake is typically dosed at Topical 1-4% serum/cream, 1-2x daily (≈250-1000 mcg per application) in research protocols. See the full titration schedule on the protocol page.
