VIP (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide): 5 mg vial with 3 mL water
Quick answer
Adding 3 mL of bacteriostatic water to a 5 mg VIP (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide) vial gives 1.67 mg/mL (1666.7 mcg/mL), so each unit on a U-100 insulin syringe holds 16.7 mcg. A 50 mcg dose is 3 units (0.03 mL), and the vial holds about 100 doses of that size.
Concentration
- Vial: 5 mg VIP (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide)
- Bacteriostatic water: 3 mL
- Concentration: 1.67 mg/mL (1666.7 mcg/mL)
- 1 unit on a U-100 syringe = 16.7 mcg

Common questions
How many units is 50 mcg of VIP (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide) from a 5 mg vial with 3 mL water?
50 mcg is 3 units (0.03 mL) on a U-100 insulin syringe. With 3 mL of water in a 5 mg vial, each unit holds 16.7 mcg. For comparison: 100 mcg = 6 units, 200 mcg = 12 units, 250 mcg = 15 units.
What is the concentration of a 5 mg VIP (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide) vial mixed with 3 mL of water?
5 mg divided by 3 mL is 1.67 mg/mL, or 1666.7 mcg per mL. On a U-100 syringe (100 units = 1 mL) that is 16.7 mcg per unit.
How many 50 mcg doses are in a 5 mg vial?
About 100. The water volume changes how many units each dose takes, not how many doses the vial holds.
