Cerebrolysin: 60 mg vial with 2 mL water
Quick answer
Adding 2 mL of bacteriostatic water to a 60 mg Cerebrolysin vial gives 30 mg/mL (30000 mcg/mL), so each unit on a U-100 insulin syringe holds 300 mcg. A 20 mg dose is 66.7 units (0.667 mL), and the vial holds about 3 doses of that size.
Concentration
- Vial: 60 mg Cerebrolysin
- Bacteriostatic water: 2 mL
- Concentration: 30 mg/mL (30000 mcg/mL)
- 1 unit on a U-100 syringe = 300 mcg
Cerebrolysin dose to syringe units
| Dose | Syringe units (U-100) | Volume | Doses per vial |
|---|---|---|---|
| 300 mcg | 1 units | 0.01 mL | 200 |
| 500 mcg | 1.7 units | 0.017 mL | 120 |
| 750 mcg | 2.5 units | 0.025 mL | 80 |
| 1 mg | 3.3 units | 0.033 mL | 60 |
| 20 mg (protocol dose) | 66.7 units | 0.667 mL | 3 |
| 24 mg (protocol dose) | 80 units | 0.8 mL | 2 |
| 28 mg (protocol dose) | 93.3 units | 0.933 mL | 2 |
| 32 mg (protocol dose) | more than 1 mL (1.067 mL), too much for one U-100 syringe | 1.067 mL | 1 |

Common questions
How many units is 20 mg of Cerebrolysin from a 60 mg vial with 2 mL water?
20 mg is 66.7 units (0.667 mL) on a U-100 insulin syringe. With 2 mL of water in a 60 mg vial, each unit holds 300 mcg. For comparison: 1 mg = 3.3 units, 24 mg = 80 units, 28 mg = 93.3 units.
What is the concentration of a 60 mg Cerebrolysin vial mixed with 2 mL of water?
60 mg divided by 2 mL is 30 mg/mL, or 30000 mcg per mL. On a U-100 syringe (100 units = 1 mL) that is 300 mcg per unit.
How many 20 mg doses are in a 60 mg vial?
About 3. The water volume changes how many units each dose takes, not how many doses the vial holds.
How much water should I add to a 60 mg Cerebrolysin vial?
The Crestigen Cerebrolysin protocol uses 3 mL. 2 mL works too as long as you calculate units for this concentration (30 mg/mL) and label the vial.
