About Recondraw
A free calculator that turns a peptide vial, the water you add and the syringe or pen you use into exact units, clicks and milligrams.
Medical disclaimer
Recondraw is a calculator and reference. It does not recommend doses, compounds or treatments, and it is not medical advice. Many compounds listed here are sold for research only and are not approved for human use where you live. Check every result against the markings on your own syringe or pen, and follow the guidance of a licensed clinician.
Vial sizes are common supplier catalog sizes. Your supplier’s label is the source of truth.
Privacy
Recondraw has no analytics, no ads and no third-party scripts or fonts. Every calculation runs in your browser, and your settings, shelf and dose log are saved in your browser’s storage on this device.
Sync is optional. If you turn it on, Recondraw stores a passkey’s public key, a session cookie that keeps you signed in, and your shelf encrypted on your device with a key the server never sees. There is no email address or name. You can delete everything from the shelf page at any time.
Install it as an app
Recondraw works offline once you’ve opened it. On Android and desktop Chrome or Edge, use Install app in the header or your browser menu. On iPhone and iPad, open it in Safari, tap Share, then Add to Home Screen.
Support and contact
Recondraw is free, with no ads and no tracking. If it saves you time, you can buy me a coffee to help keep it running.
