Oxytocin Dosage Calculator
Reconstitution volumes, concentration and U-100 unit equivalents for Oxytocin.
These examples explain unit relationships in published research and are not instructions for preparing, measuring or administering any compound. Do not use this information to self-administer research chemicals.
Worked at 40 mcg, the amount reported in the research for Oxytocin. Every row is the same arithmetic: milligrams in the vial divided by millilitres of water gives the concentration, and the target amount divided by that concentration gives the volume.

List prices, checked September 4, 2026. Sale pricing is ignored on purpose so the table does not swing week to week. Verify before ordering.
Suppliers are listed alphabetically. We do not rank them by price, because the cheapest vial and the one worth buying are rarely the same thing. The column that matters is the last one, and today most of it reads "none on file", including for Quartz Peptides, which is owned by this site’s editor. See the disclosure and the COA guide.
How strong is the evidence for Oxytocin?
We grade it B on a four-point scale. A large human literature that is genuinely mixed, with many social-cognition results failing to replicate.
What is the half-life of Oxytocin?
About 3 to 5 minutes. That is the figure the reported dosing frequency follows from.
What amount of Oxytocin is used in the research?
Per session: 18–40 IU intranasal. Dosed by session rather than a daily total. Reference practice only.
How much does Oxytocin cost?
A 10 mg vial lists at $59 from BioEdge Research Labs, which works out to $5.90 per mg and about $0.24 per dose at the amount used in research. Prices checked September 4, 2026. Price is not a quality signal, so check the certificate of analysis before ordering from anyone.
How is Oxytocin stored once reconstituted?
Refrigerate the mixed or nasal solution at 2 to 8 °C and use within about 2 to 3 weeks.
