Glutathione Calculator
Enter your Glutathione vial size, the water you add and your dose to get the units to draw on a U-100 syringe. The units chart and water table below cover 200, 600, 1500 mg vials.
How many units is each Glutathione dose?
Units on a U-100 insulin syringe for common amounts, with 5 mL of bacteriostatic water in the vial. With a different water amount, use the calculator above.
| Dose (mg) | 200 mg vial + 5 mL | 600 mg vial + 5 mL | 1500 mg vial + 5 mL |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50 mg | 125 units* 1.25 mL | 41.7 units 0.417 mL | 16.7 units 0.167 mL |
| 100 mg | 250 units* 2.5 mL | 83.3 units 0.833 mL | 33.3 units 0.333 mL |
| 200 mg | 500 units* 5 mL | 166.7 units* 1.667 mL | 66.7 units 0.667 mL |
| 400 mg | 1,000 units* 10 mL | 333.3 units* 3.333 mL | 133.3 units* 1.333 mL |
* More than one 1 mL syringe. Use more water or split the draw.
How much bac water for Glutathione?
Water only changes how much liquid each dose takes up, not how much Glutathione is in it. To land a 100 mg dose on a round number of units, add:
| Vial | So 100 mg = 10 units | So 100 mg = 20 units |
|---|---|---|
| 200 mg | 0.2 mL | 0.4 mL |
| 600 mg | 0.6 mL | 1.2 mL |
| 1500 mg | 1.5 mL | 3 mL |
How do you reconstitute Glutathione?
- Concentration: 600 mg ÷ 5 mL = 120 mg/mL (1,200 mcg per unit).
- Volume to draw: 100 mg ÷ 120 mg/mL = 0.833 mL.
- Syringe units: 0.833 mL × 100 = 83.3 units on a U-100 syringe.
Example numbers only. They come from the default vial, water and amount above, not a recommendation.
What else do people ask about Glutathione?
How many units is 100 mg of Glutathione?
It depends on how much water is in the vial. With a 600 mg vial and 5 mL of water, 100 mg is 83.3 units (0.833 mL) on a U-100 syringe. Change the vial or water amount above to see your number.
How much bacteriostatic water do I add to a Glutathione vial?
There's no single right amount. More water makes each unit weaker and the draw bigger, which is easier to measure. Less water makes the draw smaller. Many people pick an amount that puts their dose on a round number of units. The "Units → water to add" tab and the table above work this out.
How many doses are in a 600 mg Glutathione vial?
At 100 mg per dose, a 600 mg vial holds 6 doses. The amount of water doesn't change this.
Does this page recommend a Glutathione dose?
No. This page only converts amounts you enter into syringe units. Ask a licensed clinician about whether and how to use Glutathione.
