DSIP dosing chart (mg to units)
DSIP's PinPoint model uses minute-scale timing and a 5 mg catalog vial. The peptide entry is labeled Limited human research, and its description points to historical literature with limited modern characterization. The arithmetic table provides five concrete portions of the documented vial.
Vial concentration
Water mL is treated as final solution mL in these columns.
| Vial contents | 1 mL water | 2 mL water | 3 mL water |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 mg | 5 mg/mL20 U-100 units per mg | 2.5 mg/mL40 U-100 units per mg | 1.6667 mg/mL60 U-100 units per mg |
Vial source: PinPoint/Data/CompoundLibrary.swift, line 927, the DSIP entry. One documented amount is available.

Cited amounts
No cited amount is listed for DSIP; the amount table contains arithmetic examples only.
How to read this chart
Find the concentration column. Divide the amount by that concentration. Multiply the mL value by 100 for U-100 units. Match the amount units before dividing.
units = amount ÷ (vial mg ÷ water mL) × 100
Amount and volume
One mg equals 1,000 mcg; 100 U-100 units equals 1 mL. Concentration connects amount to volume. Read the full conversion guide.
The historical reference in the library
PinPoint cites a peer-reviewed review for DSIP and notes that a modern human reference source was not found in its source material. The low-confidence flag is enabled for the stored model. This is a specific description of the evidence behind the entry, not an empty field that the chart fills with a new clinical claim. The concentration values remain calculable because they rely on a package amount and a volume. A historical pharmacology reference and a supplier's package listing contribute different kinds of information to the page.
Seven-point-two minutes on the model clock
The DSIP half-life field is 0.12 hours. Converting hours to minutes gives 7.2, preserving the precision of the stored number. Its peak-time parameter is 0.1 hours, or six minutes, and its base bioavailability coefficient is 0.70, or 70%. With such short time references, the recorded clock time positions a narrow estimated event within a much longer day. The frequency metadata simply says Once daily. That daily label does not imply a flat modeled level for the entire interval between dated entries.
A level estimate is different from vial inventory
DSIP is represented as a compounded vial with subcutaneous listed as its route. The model's short half-life describes the estimated timeline after a logged event; it does not describe how quickly an unopened or remaining vial amount disappears. The chart still begins with all 5 mg of its documented contents. This distinction keeps two useful records separate: how much compound a volume calculation represents, and where an event sits on a time-based model. The same mg unit can appear in both views without making the calculations identical.
Reading the upper example row
The DSIP supplier-catalog citation documents a 5 mg lyophilized vial. One half of that total is 2.5 mg, the final row of the arithmetic ladder. It occupies 0.5 mL if the whole vial is represented in 1 mL, or 1.5 mL if the whole vial is represented in 3 mL. Those volumes span 50 and 150 U-100 units. The latter receives the over-one-syringe marker while remaining only half of the vial's contents. A capacity flag and a vial-amount comparison therefore answer different questions.
Questions about the conversion
What concentration is DSIP at 5 mg in 1 mL?
5 mg divided by 1 mL is 5 mg per mL. That volume spans 100 U-100 syringe units.
How does 2 mL change the concentration of this DSIP vial?
5 mg divided by 2 mL is 2.5 mg per mL, half the concentration in the 1 mL column.
What does the 3 mL column mean for DSIP?
5 mg divided by 3 mL is approximately 1.6667 mg per mL. The full 3 mL volume corresponds to 300 U-100 units.
How many units is 0.5 mg of DSIP from this vial in 2 mL?
0.5 mg divided by 2.5 mg per mL is 0.2 mL, or 20 U-100 units.
