5,000 I.U HCG 3ml help

ad

Okay, so the HCG vial I have holds only 3ml. I don't have a mixing vial so currently I have 5,000 I.Us in 3ml of bac water. Is it ok to draw and inject as it is? Or should I purchase a mixing vial and draw the 3 mls and then add another 2mls to the mixing vial? Also if it is ok as is how many I.U would I have on the slin needle? Help is greatly appreciated =)

Ok,here we go.5000iu's/3ml=1666.666iu's per ml.If your going for 250iu's of hcg you divide 1666.666 by 250 and that equals 6.66.That means you have 6.66 doses per ml for a total of 20 doses for 3ml.Now if using a 1cc insulin pin where 100iu's on the insulin pin equals a cc,divide the 100iu's by 6.66 and that gives you 15.So you need 15iu's on the slin pin to give you 250iu's of hcg.You can use a slin pin that is 1/2cc/50iu's and you would still use 15iu's on the slin pin.I hope this helps.
