Dose Track saves the water you added to each GHK-Cu vial and turns the dose you log into syringe units. Because GHK-Cu vials are large, one vial lasts a long time, so the app keeps the mix date and counts down what is left.
GHK-Cu is a copper complex of a tripeptide found in human plasma. It is used in skin-care products; injectable use is not FDA approved, so there is no label schedule. In Dose Track you log the dose your protocol uses and set its schedule.
GHK-Cu powder vials are much larger than most peptides: usually 50 mg or 100 mg. More water is often added, so the table uses larger volumes. The strength after mixing sets the units for any dose, and Dose Track does that math for you.
| Vial | 2 mL water | 3 mL water | 5 mL water |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50 mg vial | 25 mg/mL · 250 mcg per unit | 16.667 mg/mL · 166.667 mcg per unit | 10 mg/mL · 100 mcg per unit |
| 100 mg vial | 50 mg/mL · 500 mcg per unit | 33.333 mg/mL · 333.333 mcg per unit | 20 mg/mL · 200 mcg per unit |

Each row is something worth writing down for GHK-Cu, why it matters for this medicine, and what Dose Track does with it.
| What to track | Why it matters | In Dose Track |
|---|---|---|
| Mixing math | Large vials and larger water volumes make the units easy to get wrong. | Saved with the vial; each logged dose shows mL and units with the syringe drawn. |
| Date mixed | A large vial is used over many weeks after mixing. | Each vial keeps its mix date and an expiry date you set. |
| Dose and schedule | There is no approved dose; log the dose your protocol uses. | Daily, weekday or every-N-days schedules with reminders. |
| Site reactions | A note about a sore or marked spot is only useful if you know which shot it was. | Each shot keeps its site and any reaction (redness, swelling, bruising, lump, itching). |
| Blends | GHK-Cu often appears in blended vials with other peptides. | Log a blend as one dose; each compound is saved as its own dose. |
Injectable GHK-Cu has no FDA label and no official side-effect list. Dose Track has quick picks for the side effects people on peptides log most: injection-site reaction, tiredness, headache, nausea, flushing and water retention. You can type in anything else and set how bad it was. Each shot can also carry a site reaction (redness, swelling, bruising, a lump or itching), so a sore spot is tied to the site and the vial it came from.
Injectable GHK-Cu has no label and so no official missed-dose rule; the gap shows in your log.
In Dose Track a missed dose stands out in your history, so you can see the gap and count from the right day.
Dose Track is a tracking app, not medical advice. It records what you and your prescriber decide; it does not recommend doses. Check any dose change with your prescriber.
