--- ## Dose Calculator: 5mg/mL Concentration At the standard 5mg/mL concentration, here is how each semaglutide dose translates to volume and insulin syringe units: | Semaglutide Dose | Volume (mL) | Insulin Syringe Units | Common Use | |-----------------|-------------|----------------------|------------| | 0.25mg | 0.05mL | 5 units | Starting dose, weeks 14 | | 0.5mg | 0.10mL | 10 units | Dose escalation, weeks 58 | | 1.0mg | 0.20mL | 20 units | Therapeutic dose | | 1.7mg | 0.34mL | 34 units | High dose | | 2.0mg | 0.40mL | 40 units | High dose | | 2.4mg | 0.48mL | 48 units | Maximum dose (Wegovy equivalent) | **Formula:** Dose (mg) Concentration (mg/mL) = Volume (mL)
