Kelly, do not attempt to eyeball 12.5 units on a syringe that only has marks every 10 units! That is a 1.0 mL syringe intended for high insulin doses, and guessing between marks carries a 30% margin of error.
What you need: You need 0.3 mL (30-unit) U-100 micro-syringes with half-unit graduations. On a 0.3 mL barrel, each individual unit line is widely spaced, and there are smaller intermediate tic marks for half units (0.5, 1.0, 1.5, etc.).
- On that syringe, line 12 is clearly numbered. - The half-unit line sits right between 12 and 13. - Pull the black plunger tip so the top ring rests squarely on that half-unit tick mark.
If you don't have 0.3 mL syringes, message our clinical concierge through your Telehealth FX portal and we will send a complimentary pack of 30-unit precision micro-needles immediately. See the full chart: 20 mg/mL Compounded Tirzepatide Dosing Tables.
