Equipoise Dosage Calculator

Quick answer: A 300 mg/week dose over 2 shots from a 250 mg/mL vial is 0.6 mL (60 units) per shot, ≈ 189 mg active hormone/week. mL = (weekly mg ÷ shots) ÷ mg/mL.

Key takeaways

Injectable ester — about 63% of each mg is Equipoise; the calculator converts dose → mL, units and active mg. Aromatizes: Yes (partial). Liver-strain (17α-alkylated): No. Half-life: ≈ 14 days human depot (compiled); 123 h measured in an equine PK study (species caveat).

About this calculator

Equipoise (boldenone undecylenate) is a long-ester injectable, originally veterinary. Only about 63% of each milligram is active boldenone — the long undecylenate chain accounts for the rest. This calculator converts a weekly dose into draw volume and syringe units, and shows the long depot half-life.

Boldenone undecylenate began as a veterinary preparation and uses an exceptionally long ester, so only about 63% of each milligram is boldenone — the lowest active fraction in this set. It is commonly supplied at 200–300 mg/mL.

How the injection-volume maths works

The long undecylenate chain is over a third of the molecule’s weight (286.4 ÷ 452.7 = 0.63), so a 300 mg dose delivers about 189 mg of boldenone. The calculator shows both numbers.

How to use this calculator

Enter your weekly dose, the concentration printed on your vial (mg/mL), and how many injections per week. The result updates instantly with the mL to draw, the U-100 syringe units, and the active-hormone milligrams delivered.

Worked examples

Example 1

Weekly dose: 300 mg · Concentration: 250 mg/mL · Injections/week: 2

150 mg/shot ÷ 250 = 0.6 mL (60 units) · active ≈ 189 mg/week

Example 2

Weekly dose: 400 mg · Concentration: 300 mg/mL · Injections/week: 2

200 mg/shot ÷ 300 = 0.667 mL (66.7 units) · active ≈ 252 mg/week

Illustrative single-dose elimination by half-life (t½ ≈ 14 days). Each marker is one half-life; after ~5 the dose is essentially cleared. For an oil depot the real rise-and-fall is slower (absorption-limited release), so treat this as a timing reference, not a blood-level prediction.

EQ’s very long ester means a multi-week depot and a slow climb to steady state; a peer-reviewed equine study measured a terminal half-life of ~123 hours, with the species caveat that humans may differ.

How to interpret your result

The result is the volume to draw per injection and its mark on a U-100 syringe. The active-hormone figure shows how much actual Equipoise that ester delivers — useful when comparing esters or switching concentrations. The half-life figure is a pharmacokinetic timing reference only.

Aromatization, liver & monitoring

Boldenone aromatizes, though more slowly than testosterone and toward an atypical estrogen profile, so estrogen management can still matter. It is not 17α-alkylated, so it is not directly hepatotoxic; a raised red-cell count is a more typical concern.

Common mistakes

Dosing EQ like a short ester and expecting quick effects is the common error — it can take many weeks to plateau. For the maths, note the low 0.63 active fraction, the lowest here.

Frequently asked questions

How do I calculate my Equipoise dose?
Divide your weekly dose by the number of injections, then by the vial concentration: mL = (weekly mg ÷ shots) ÷ mg/mL, then × 100 for U-100 units. For example, 300 mg/week over 2 shots at 250 mg/mL is 0.6 mL (60 units) per shot.
What is the active-hormone amount for Equipoise?
Equipoise is an ester, so only part of each milligram is hormone. Its esterFactor is 0.63 (parent MW 286.4 ÷ ester MW 452.7), so a 100 mg dose delivers about 63 mg of the parent hormone.
What is the half-life of Equipoise?
≈ 14 days human depot (compiled); 123 h measured in an equine PK study (species caveat).
Does Equipoise aromatize or stress the liver?
Aromatizes: Yes (partial) — an aromatase substrate, roughly half the rate of testosterone (estimate; atypical estrogen profile). 17α-alkylated (liver strain): No (not 17α-alkylated).
Is this medical advice?
No. This is an educational arithmetic tool. It converts the numbers you enter, stores nothing, and does not recommend any dose, cycle, or protocol. Anabolic steroid use carries real health risks — consult a qualified clinician.

How this is calculated

For injectables the calculator divides your weekly dose by the number of injections, then by the vial concentration, to get the mL per shot — and multiplies by 100 for U-100 syringe units (1 mL = 100 units). The active-hormone milligrams are the dose multiplied by the esterFactor (the parent hormone’s molecular weight divided by the full ester’s molecular weight, both from PubChem). For orals it divides the daily dose by your doses-per-day and tablet strength to get tablets per dose. Half-life timing uses ke = ln2 ÷ t½ and the ~5-half-life rule of thumb for steady state and clearance. It is arithmetic only — nothing you enter is stored or sent anywhere, and the result is not medical advice or an endorsement of anabolic steroid use.
