GLOW blend reconstitution: units and amount of each peptide

Per-peptide units charts · Fixed-ratio math · Research status with sources · Reviewed

Short answer: With 3 mL of bacteriostatic water in a GLOW 70 mg vial (50 mg GHK-Cu + 10 mg BPC-157 + 10 mg TB-500), every 10 units on a U-100 insulin syringe holds 1.667 mg GHK-Cu, 333.3 mcg BPC-157 and 333.3 mcg TB-500. The ratio is fixed, so you cannot change one peptide without changing the others. Amounts are arithmetic on the label, not dose advice.

What is in GLOW?

GLOW is a three-peptide blend sold in one vial: GHK-Cu, BPC-157 and TB-500. The number after the name (GLOW 70, GLOW 50) is usually the total mg in the vial. KLOW is the same blend with KPV added.

The 70 mg version is the one most listings show. A 50 mg version also appears with less GHK-Cu and BPC-157, so read the amounts on your own label and use the matching table.

How many units: amount of each peptide per 10 units

The water volume changes how big each draw is, not what is in the vial. The highlighted row is 3 mL.

For any other vial, water volume or draw, the free peptide blend calculator does the same math for 2 to 5 peptides.

The math

  1. Concentration of each peptide. mg of that peptide ÷ mL of water. For GLOW 70 mg with 3 mL: GHK-Cu 50 ÷ 3 = 16.667 mg/mL, BPC-157 10 ÷ 3 = 3.333 mg/mL, TB-500 10 ÷ 3 = 3.333 mg/mL.
  2. Volume for the peptide you are targeting. amount ÷ its concentration = mL. Example: 250 mcg of TB-500 is 0.25 ÷ 3.333 = 0.075 mL.
  3. Syringe units. mL × 100 on a U-100 syringe: 0.075 × 100 = 7.5 units.
  4. Everything else in that draw. mL × concentration for each other peptide: 1.25 mg GHK-Cu and 250 mcg BPC-157.
The amount in the example is there to show the math, not a recommendation. How much to take is a decision for you and your prescriber.

The key limitation: the ratio is fixed

A blend is one solution, so every draw takes the same share of each peptide. In the example above, drawing 7.5 units for 250 mcg of TB-500 also gives 1.25 mg GHK-Cu and 250 mcg BPC-157. Doubling the draw to 15 units doubles all of them, to 2.5 mg GHK-Cu and 500 mcg BPC-157. There is no draw that changes one peptide and leaves the others where they are.

More or less water does not help either: it changes how many units each draw is, not the ratio between the peptides. If you need to set the amount of each peptide on its own, they have to be in separate vials (a stack), each with its own single-peptide calculation.

Research status of each peptide

We found no published human study of GLOW as a blend. Below is what is published for each peptide on its own. "Amounts studied" are what a study gave or reported, often by a different route; they are not personalized advice. Confirm anything about your own use with your prescriber.

GHK-Cu

A copper complex of a tripeptide found naturally in human plasma, used in skin-care products. Injectable use is not FDA approved. Most research is in cells, animals and topical products; we found no published controlled human trials of injected GHK-Cu. [1]

Amounts studied: None published for injection.

BPC-157

Not FDA approved. Research is mostly in animals: a 2025 systematic review found 36 studies, 35 of them preclinical. A 2026 systematic review found three small human studies (30 people in total), none with a control group, and rated the certainty of the evidence very low. [2][3][4]

Amounts studied: The only published human amounts come from small uncontrolled reports. One intravenous safety pilot gave 10 mg and then 20 mg infusions to 2 adults. No controlled trial has studied BPC-157 injected under the skin.

TB-500

Not FDA approved. TB-500 is a synthetic copy of a short active region of thymosin beta-4 (N-acetylated LKKTETQ). There are no published human studies of TB-500 itself; research on it is in cells and animals. [5][6]

Amounts studied: None published for TB-500. The only human dosing data are for full-length recombinant thymosin beta-4, a larger and different molecule, given into a vein at 0.05 to 25 mcg/kg in a phase I safety study.

Regulatory status. As of October 2026 none of the peptides in these blends is FDA approved. In July 2026 an FDA advisory committee voted 8 to 6 to recommend adding BPC-157, KPV and TB-500 to the list of substances pharmacies may compound. FDA staff had recommended against it, the vote is not binding, and none has been added yet. [7]

Frequently asked questions

How many units of GLOW do I draw?+
It depends on how much water is in the vial and the amount of one peptide you are aiming for. With 3 mL in a GLOW 70 mg vial, every 10 units on a U-100 insulin syringe holds 1.667 mg GHK-Cu, 333.3 mcg BPC-157 and 333.3 mcg TB-500. To find the units for a set amount of one peptide, divide that amount by its concentration (mg in vial ÷ mL of water) and multiply by 100. How much to take is a decision for you and your prescriber.
How much bacteriostatic water do I add to a GLOW 70 mg vial?+
There is no single right amount. More water makes each draw bigger and easier to measure; less water makes it smaller. With 2 mL, 10 units holds 2.5 mg GHK-Cu, 500 mcg BPC-157 and 500 mcg TB-500. With 3 mL, 10 units holds 1.667 mg GHK-Cu, 333.3 mcg BPC-157 and 333.3 mcg TB-500. With 5 mL, 10 units holds 1 mg GHK-Cu, 200 mcg BPC-157 and 200 mcg TB-500.
What is the difference between GLOW 70 mg and GLOW 50 mg?+
GLOW 70 mg is commonly labeled as 50 mg GHK-Cu + 10 mg BPC-157 + 10 mg TB-500. GLOW 50 mg is commonly labeled as 35 mg GHK-Cu + 10 mg TB-500 + 5 mg BPC-157. The ratio is different, so the same draw holds different amounts: with 3 mL, 10 units of GLOW 70 mg holds 1.667 mg GHK-Cu, 333.3 mcg BPC-157 and 333.3 mcg TB-500, and 10 units of GLOW 50 mg holds 1.167 mg GHK-Cu, 333.3 mcg TB-500 and 166.7 mcg BPC-157. Use the amounts on your own label.
Can I change the amount of one peptide in GLOW without changing the others?+
No. The peptides are mixed in one vial, so the ratio is fixed when the vial is made. Every draw takes the same volume of all of them: drawing more of GHK-Cu also means drawing more of BPC-157 and TB-500. Adding more or less water changes the draw size, not the ratio. To adjust one peptide on its own you would need it in a separate vial.
How many draws are in a GLOW vial?+
A vial mixed with 3 mL holds 300 units, so it gives 30 draws of 10 units or 15 draws of 20 units. All of the peptides run out on the same draw, because each draw takes the same share of each. In practice a little is lost to syringe dead space and the last drops in the vial.
Is GLOW FDA approved?+
As of October 2026 none of the peptides in these blends is FDA approved. In July 2026 an FDA advisory committee voted 8 to 6 to recommend adding BPC-157, KPV and TB-500 to the list of substances pharmacies may compound. FDA staff had recommended against it, the vote is not binding, and none has been added yet.
Can I track GLOW in Dose Track?+
Yes. Dose Track supports single-vial blends. Save the vial with the mg of each peptide and the water you added; the ratio stays locked, and each draw you log records the amount of every peptide in it. Your log stays on your phone.
