Concentration by vial and diluent
| Vial | 1 mL diluent | 2 mL diluent | 3 mL diluent |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 mg | 2,000 mcg/mL | 1,000 mcg/mL | 667 mcg/mL |
| 5 mg | 5,000 mcg/mL | 2,500 mcg/mL | 1,667 mcg/mL |
| 10 mg | 10,000 mcg/mL | 5,000 mcg/mL | 3,333 mcg/mL |
Concentration is vial mass divided by diluent volume. Reconstitution volume changes what you draw, never the dose itself.
