The short answer
Mixed with 2 mL of bacteriostatic water, a 15 mg vial of Tesamorelin + Ipamorelin holds 7.5 mg/mL (5 mg/mL Tesamorelin and 2.5 mg/mL Ipamorelin). A 1 mg Tesamorelin dose is then 20 units (0.20 mL) on a U-100 insulin syringe, and the vial holds about 10 doses of that size. Taken 1× per day, it lasts about 10 days.
How much water
The water only sets the strength; the dose and the number of doses in the vial stay the same. Draws are on a U-100 insulin syringe, where 1 unit is 0.01 mL.

|---|---|---|---|
| 1 mL | 10 mg/mL Tesamorelin 5 mg/mL Ipamorelin | 100 mcg Tesamorelin 50 mcg Ipamorelin | 10 units (0.10 mL) |
| 2 mL | 5 mg/mL Tesamorelin 2.5 mg/mL Ipamorelin | 50 mcg Tesamorelin 25 mcg Ipamorelin | 20 units (0.20 mL) |
