Bidirectional reference for a 5 mg AOD-9604 vial reconstituted with 2 mL BAC water (concentration 2.50 mg/mL).

Dose (mg)	Dose (mcg)	U-100 units

Read across in either direction. The mg ↔ units relationship is linear at a fixed concentration — change vial size or BAC water and every row in this table moves.

Worked example

AOD-9604 mg ↔ units, both directions on one vial

Working from one 5 mg AOD-9604 vial mixed with 2 mL of bacteriostatic water → 2.50 mg/mL.
mg → units: 0.3 mg ÷ 2.50 × 100 = 12 units.
units → mg: 12 units ÷ 100 × 2.50 = 0.3 mg — round-trip exact, that's how you sanity-check a logged value.
mcg flip: 0.3 mg = 300 mcg, useful when the protocol writes the dose below the 1 mg threshold.
Every row here is specific to this vial; reconstitute with a different volume and you start from a different concentration.

Scenarios people actually run into

Three things that come up logging AOD-9604

Protocol says 0.3 mg. Syringe says 12 units. Those are the same draw on this vial — and only on this vial.
Someone online says "AOD-9604 dose is 20 units." That number is meaningless without their vial mg and their diluent mL. Ignore the units number and convert from the mg.
Logged a dose in units last week and a dose in mg today. The mg ↔ units flip on this page is how you confirm both entries describe the same actual draw.

AOD-9604 is a small, modified piece of human growth hormone (hGH) that people explore for its effects on fat metabolism. Unlike full-length growth hormone, it was developed specifically to target fat cells without affecting blood sugar or causing growth. Early studies, including a Phase 2b trial in obese adults, reported that it influenced fat loss, though research is still considered preliminary. This page covers what AOD-9604 is, how it’s thought to work, and the ways people track its use in the Peptide Pilot app.

How the AOD-9604 mg ↔ units converter works

AOD-9604 doses are written in mcg (250, 300, 500). This converter shows U-100 units at your vial concentration so each daily protocol step lines up with what you draw.

The formula in both directions: mg = mL × concentration mg/mL, and units = mL × 100 on a U-100 syringe. With a 2.5 mg/mL AOD-9604 solution, 0.3 mg comes out to 12 units, and 12 units comes out to 0.3 mg. The converter handles the unit flip automatically so you never multiply or divide in your head while holding a syringe.

Concentration is the input that changes the answer most. A 5 mg vial diluted with 1 mL is twice as concentrated as the same vial diluted with 2 mL, which means the same dose draws half as many units. That is the single biggest source of converter confusion: a remembered unit count from an old vial does not transfer to a new vial reconstituted with different water volume.

The conversion from milligrams (mg) to syringe units is one of the most vital calculations in any peptide protocol. Your AOD-9604 is measured by weight (milligrams), but you administer it by volume (units on a syringe). The "mg to Units" calculator is built to make this conversion foolproof. The ratio of mg to units is determined by the concentration of your solution, which depends on just two things: the total mg in the vial and the total mL of water you add.

Let's break down the math for our example of a 5mg vial of AOD-9604 and 2mL of diluent. The concentration becomes 2.5mg per mL (5mg / 2mL). Since a standard 1mL insulin syringe contains 100 units, your vial now contains 2.5mg of peptide per 100 units of liquid. To find the unit amount for a smaller 0.3mg dose, you can set up a simple ratio: (0.3mg / 2.5mg) = (X units / 100 units). Solving for X gives you 12 units. This is the core calculation the tool performs for you instantly.

This conversion is fundamental because even a small change can alter your dose. For instance, if you had used 3mL of water instead of 2mL to reconstitute the same 5mg vial, the concentration would be lower, and a 0.3mg dose would now require 18 units instead of 12. Using the "mg to Units" calculator ensures you’re always drawing the correct volume for your desired milligram dose, no matter how you’ve mixed your vial. It provides the precision needed for a reliable and consistent tracking experience with AOD-9604.

Tracking AOD-9604 unit counts

The Peptide Pilot app is designed to make tracking your AOD-9604 protocol simple and accurate. When you first get your vial, you’ll start by setting up a new peptide in the app. You’ll enter the total amount of peptide in the vial—for example, 5mg. Next, you’ll enter the amount of diluent (bacteriostatic water) you used for reconstitution, such as 2mL. The app instantly calculates the resulting concentration for you, so you know exactly how many milligrams of AOD-9604 are in every milliliter or unit of your solution. This one-time setup removes the need for manual calculations every time you prepare a dose.

Each day, you’ll log your dose in the app. Let’s say your target is 0.3mg. You can simply enter "0.3mg" as your dose amount. Based on the vial information you entered earlier, the app will automatically tell you how many units that corresponds to on an insulin syringe—in this case, 12 units. This feature helps eliminate the most common source of error: incorrect dose calculation. You just draw up the specified number of units and you can be confident you’re administering the exact amount you intended to. You can also add notes to each entry, such as the time of day or whether you took it in a fasted state, to add more context to your log.

Beyond just logging doses, the app serves as a comprehensive journal for your entire protocol. Since AOD-9604 is used for body composition, you can use the app’s tracking features to monitor relevant metrics. You might log your body weight daily, or take weekly measurements of your waist, hips, or other areas. If you have access to a smart scale or body fat caliper, you can also log your body fat percentage. Over time, you can view this data in graphs alongside your dosing history, giving you a clear visual representation of your journey and helping you assess how your AOD-9604 protocol correlates with the changes you’re observing.

Frequently asked questions about AOD-9604 mg ↔ units

What's the formula behind this AOD-9604 mg ↔ units converter?

Both directions use the same concentration. Going mg → units: (dose mg ÷ concentration mg/mL) × 100. Going units → mg: (units ÷ 100) × concentration. For this AOD-9604 example at 2.50 mg/mL, 0.3 mg works out to about 12 units, and the same number of units converts back to 0.3 mg. Most AOD-9604 dose tables online assume 300 mcg as the working step — verify your protocol before scaling up.

Why does my AOD-9604 unit count not match a number I read online?

Almost always because the other source assumed a different vial concentration. A "AOD-9604 dose = 20 units" tip is meaningless without knowing whether the vial was reconstituted with 1, 2, or 3 mL of water. The converter on this page asks for your actual vial mg and diluent mL so the answer reflects your vial, not someone else's. Most AOD-9604 dose tables online assume 300 mcg as the working step — verify your protocol before scaling up.

Does the AOD-9604 converter handle mcg as well as mg?

Yes — 1 mg equals 1,000 mcg, and the converter does the unit flip automatically when you switch the input. This matters for peptides where typical doses sit below 1 mg: a 250 mcg AOD-9604 dose displayed as 0.25 mg is the same number, just easier to read. Most AOD-9604 dose tables online assume 300 mcg as the working step — verify your protocol before scaling up.

When would I convert AOD-9604 units back to mg?

Most often when checking a dose someone else recorded. Logs and protocols sometimes write the dose in units (because it's what shows on the syringe), other times in mg (because it's what the protocol step is named). The reverse direction lets you confirm a logged unit count actually matches the planned mg target before drawing the next dose. Most AOD-9604 dose tables online assume 300 mcg as the working step — verify your protocol before scaling up.
