How many units is 2.4 mg of semaglutide?

It depends on exactly one thing: the concentration printed on your vial. Here it is at the 4 strengths compounded semaglutide usually comes in, and drawn on the barrel.

At 1 mg/mL, 2.4 mg is 240 units — more than one syringe holds. At 2.5 mg/mL, 2.4 mg is 96 units (0.96 mL). At 5 mg/mL, 2.4 mg is 48 units (0.48 mL). At 10 mg/mL, 2.4 mg is 24 units (0.24 mL).

What that looks like on the barrel

240 units — more than one syringe holds. 2.4 mL: that's two draws, or a stronger vial.

About this dose

Week 17+. The top of the Wegovy ladder. 96 units at 2.5 mg/mL — nearly the whole barrel, and the reason 2.5 mg/mL is the last concentration that carries the entire schedule in one syringe. 48 units at 5 mg/mL, 24 at 10 mg/mL; by this stage a small volume is not a problem.

Check it yourself

The whole sum is units = dose ÷ concentration × 100. For this dose at 2.5 mg/mL: 2.4 ÷ 2.5 × 100 = 96. If your vial isn't marked in mg/mL, the concentration is the vial's total milligrams divided by the water that went in — a 5 mg vial with 2 mL of water is 2.5 mg/mL.
