Glutathione 1500mg Reconstitution: How Much Bacteriostatic Water & How Many Units
A 1500mg vial of Glutathione contains 1,500,000 mcg. After you add bacteriostatic water, the amount of water decides the concentration — and therefore how many units you draw on a U-100 insulin syringe (1 ml = 100 units). The tables below cover the common water amounts.
Concentration by water amount
| Water added | Concentration | Per 1 unit (0.01 ml) | Per 10 units (0.1 ml) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 ml | 300 mg/ml | 3 mg | 30 mg |
| 10 ml | 150 mg/ml | 1.5 mg | 15 mg |
How many units to draw
Example doses across the research range listed for Glutathione (200 mg–1000 mg). Units are on a U-100 insulin syringe.
| Dose | With 5 ml | With 10 ml | Doses per vial |
|---|---|---|---|
| 200 mg | 66.7 units | 133.3 units (over 1 ml — split or use a larger syringe) | 7 |
| 500 mg | 166.7 units (over 1 ml — split or use a larger syringe) | 333.3 units (over 1 ml — split or use a larger syringe) | 3 |
| 750 mg | 250 units (over 1 ml — split or use a larger syringe) | 500 units (over 1 ml — split or use a larger syringe) | 2 |
| 1000 mg | 333.3 units (over 1 ml — split or use a larger syringe) | 666.7 units (over 1 ml — split or use a larger syringe) | 1 |
How to mix it
- Wipe the vial stoppers with alcohol and let them dry.
- Draw your chosen amount of bacteriostatic water into a sterile syringe.
- Inject the water slowly down the inside wall of the Glutathione vial — not directly onto the powder.
- Swirl gently until clear. Do not shake.
- Label the vial with the date and concentration, and store it in the refrigerator.

FAQ
How much bacteriostatic water do I add to a 1500mg Glutathione vial?
Common choices are 5 ml, 10 ml. With 10 ml the concentration is 150 mg/ml. More water makes each dose a larger, easier-to-measure draw; less water keeps injection volume small. The amount of water does not change the dose — only how many units you draw.
How many units is 200 mg of Glutathione from a 1500mg vial?
With 10 ml of bacteriostatic water, 200 mg is 133.3 units on a U-100 (1 ml) insulin syringe. See the table above for other water amounts.
How many doses are in a 1500mg Glutathione vial?
At 200 mg per dose, a 1500mg vial holds about 7 doses. At higher doses it holds fewer — see the table.
