re: How to get husband’s generic mounjaro script filled? Compound formula not legal in LA

Currently she receives 1ml vials of Semagultide which provides to her roughly 4-20 unit doses. She started out with the same 1ml vial initially and it gave her about 8-10 unit doses, then she went up to 15 units the next vial and is now at 20 units. If she were to purchase the 2mg red cap vial from XCE, how much bac water does she use to reconstitute and how many doses and at what units would she dose? Thanks so much. Trying to compare costs and get a complete understanding.

without knowing the medspa vial strength, there’s no way to know what dose you were taking. I hate when they put that shite strictly in units, they just try to dumb it down but people have no fkn clue what dose they’re on.


So sema dosage is 0.25mg, 0.5mg, 1mg, 1.7mg, & max of 2.4mg. We’d need to know what dose she is on to give a calculation.

I’ll post some calculator links below that are very helpful

I have free time so I’ll do some math for you

A 2mg vial reconstituted with 1mL of BAC=

0.25mg = 12.5 units
0.5mg = 25 units
1mg = 50 units
1.7mg = 85 units

If my dose was > than 1mg, I’d recon with 0.5mL instead of 1mL to have less volume in my injection. Anything over 0.5mL (50 units) can be uncomfortable via SubQ.
