Mixing and Subcutaneous Injection Instructions
These mixing instructions are based on advice from the veterans on the HCG Diet Info Forums (many thanks to them!!) and additional information found on the main site here.
Initial Information:
• Treat the HCG gently – no shaking, or dropping the bottle.
• Keep all forms of HCG refrigerated – even the powder. HCG doesn’t like heat and why take the chance of it getting damaged due to heat.
Mixing Instructions:
The mixing formula is below all the mixing instructions. The mixing formula can be tweaked based on the amount of Hcg to be injected each day.
Powder Mixing Instructions:
1. Gather materials & wash hands. Place a clean paper towel on your work surface.
• Vial of HCG powder
• Vial of Bacteriostatic Water
• Mixing vial
• Mixing syringe
• Alcohol wipes
2. Take the lid off the vial of HCG powder and the Bacteriostatic water
3. Wipe the top of the vials with an alcohol wipe
4. Open the mixing syringe and draw the suggested amount of bacteriostatic water based on the table below:
Amount of HCG in Vial; Amount of bac water to draw for mixing vial; Amount of bac water for HCG vial
5000iu; 9 cc/ml; 1 cc/ml
10,000iu; 19 cc/ml; 1 cc/ml
5. Inject the bacteriostatic water into the mixing vial (not into the HCG vial)
6. Draw 1cc of bacteriostatic water out of the bacteriostatic water vial
7. Slowly inject the 1cc of bacteriostatic water into the vial of HCG powder
8. Remove the syringe from the HCG powder vial
9. Gently roll the vial of HCG between your hands to mix. DO NOT SHAKE.
10. Draw all the liquid from the HCG vial
11. Slowly inject the HCG into the mixing vial
12. Remove the syringe from the mixing vial
13. Gently roll the mixing vial between your hands to mix. DO NOT SHAKE.
14. Wrap the mixing vial in aluminum foil to keep light away from the HCG and store it in the refrigerator.
Injection Dosage:
Regardless of what size of HCG vial you started with (5000 or 10000) the table below shows how much should be injected for the dose you select. Note: The reason the original size vial does not matter is because we have diluted the HCG in the same ratio with the bac water.
HCG Dose Injection Amount
125iu = .25 or 25 on an insulin syringe
150iu = .30 or 30 on an insulin syringe
175iu = .35 or 35 on an insulin syringe
200iu = .40 or 40 on an insulin syringe
Liquid Hcg Mixing Instructions:
1. Gather materials & wash hands. Place a clean paper towel on your work surface.
• Vial of HCG powder
• Vial of Bacteriostatic Water
• Mixing vial
• Mixing syringe
• Alcohol wipes
2. Take the lid off the vial of HCG liquid and the Bacteriostatic water
3. Wipe the top of the vials with an alcohol wipe
4. Open the mixing syringe and draw the suggested amount of bacteriostatic water based on the table below:
Amount of HCG in Vial; Amount of bac water to draw
5000iu; 9 cc/ml
10,000iu; 19 cc/ml
5. Inject the bacteriostatic water into the mixing vial (not into the HCG vial)
6. Draw all the liquid from the HCG vial
7. Slowly inject the HCG into the mixing vial
8. Remove the syringe from the mixing vial
9. Gently roll the mixing vial between your hands to mix. DO NOT SHAKE.
10. Wrap the mixing vial in aluminum foil to keep light away from the HCG and store it in the refrigerator.

Hcg Injection Dosage:
Regardless of what size of HCG vial you started with (5000, or 10000) the table below shows how much should be injected for the dose you select. Note: The reason the original size vial does not matter is because we have diluted the HCG in the same ratio with the bac water.
HCG Dose Injection Amount
125iu = .25 or 25 on an insulin syringe
150iu = .30 or 30 on an insulin syringe
175iu = .35 or 35 on an insulin syringe
200iu = .40 or 40 on an insulin syringe
Mixing Formula:
If you would like to adjust the amount of liquid (not the dose, but the actual amount of liquid) you inject daily, use the formula below to calculate the new totals.
Number of IUs in HCG vial divided by Total solution amount = IUs per ml
Dose of HCG divided by the IUs per ml = how much to put in the syringe
Example:
Sue has a 5000iu bottle of HCG. Sue wants a total solution amount of 20ml, so she mixes 1cc of bac water into the HCG, then mixes that 1cc of HCG with an additional 19cc’s of bac water. This gives her a total of 20ml Total Solution Amount.
1cc of HCG plus 19cc of bac water = 20 cc of total solution
Sue then needs to start calculating how much to inject every day.
Number of IUs in HCG vial divided by Total solution amount = IUs per ml
5000iu divided by 20ml of Total solution amount = 250 IUs per ml
Sue wants to inject a dose of 150ius per day.
Dose of HCG divided by the IUs per ml = how much to put in the syringe
150iu desired dose divided by 250ius per ml = .60ml or 60 on the insulin syringe
Sue would fill her insulin syringe up to the 60 mark to receive 150iu’s of HCG per day.
If Sue wants a dose of 175iu’s of HCG she would do this calculation:
175iu dose divided by 250iu’s per ml = .70 or 70 on the insulin syringe.

Injection Information
• Syringes should only be used once.
• Put used syringes in a hard container (glass jar or metal can) so that the needles cannot stick through.
• Close the container tightly with a screw-on cap.
• Keep the container out of reach of children and pets.
• Check with local and state regulations on proper sharps disposal.
Where can I inject the HCG?
HCG is injected into the fat layer just under the skin. There may be different absorption rates depending on where you inject the HCG, but this has not been proven one way or another.
• The abdomen ( stay at least 2 inches away from your navel)
• Outer upper arms
• Front and sides of both thighs
• Buttocks
• Hip areas
• Do not inject HCG near bony places or joints.
How do I draw up the HCG into a syringe?
• Gather your supplies (HCG, syringe, alcohol pads, sharps container).
• Wash your hands with soap and water. Dry your hands completely.
• For both new bottles and bottles used before, clean the rubber stopper with an alcohol pad.
• Remove the cap from the needle.
• Pull back the plunger on the syringe to draw in enough air to equal your HCG dose.
• Push the needle into the bottle top and inject the air into the bottle. When you inject air into the vial, this increases the air pressure inside the vial. This makes the right amount of HCG easier to draw out of the vial through the needle.
• With the needle in the bottle, turn the bottle and syringe upside down. Pull the plunger to fill the syringe past your dose of HCG.
• Push slowly on the plunger to the line of your correct dose of HCG.
• Check for air bubbles. If you see any bubbles, tap the syringe with your finger to make them rise to the top. Then pull the plunger past your dose again and slowly push in the plunger until all bubbles are gone. Repeat this if needed to get rid of air bubbles. Tiny air bubbles are not dangerous, but they will decrease the amount of HCG in the syringe.
• Remove the needle from the bottle and carefully lay the syringe down so that the needle does not touch anything.
How do I inject the HCG?
• Choose your injection site.
• Make sure the area is clean. You may clean the area with alcohol or soap and water. If alcohol is used, let it dry on the skin before injecting. This will help prevent a stinging feeling, and will help kill germs on the skin. Use 70 percent alcohol if possible, because it is a better germ killer than 90 percent alcohol.
• Grab the skin and fat tissue lightly between your thumb and first finger.
• Touch the needle to the skin, holding the syringe at a 90 degree angle. Push the needle all the way into the skin. If the needle is not in far enough, the HCG may not be injected into the fatty layer.
• Let go of the pinched tissue before injecting the HCG or you could be squeezing the HCG out at the same time you are trying to inject it.
• Press the plunger using a slow and steady push.
• Count slowly to five before removing the needle. This will help prevent HCG from leaking out of the injection site.
• Pull out the needle and place a finger or alcohol pad over the site. Hold for a few seconds and then rub the site gently to close the needle track. Sometimes there is a small amount of bleeding after the injection. This does not cause a problem except for the possible loss of HCG with the blood.
• Throw away used needles and syringes safely in a hard container (compliant with local and state regulations) that the needles cannot stick through.
Ideas to help decrease pain when injecting HCG:
• Inject HCG at room temperature.
• Remove all air bubbles from the syringe before the injection.
• If skin was cleaned with alcohol, wait until it has dried before injecting.
• If you feel pain, move the needle over a bit until you find a spot that doesn't hurt. This will reduce or eliminate needle bruising during your round.
• Avoid changing the direction of the needle during insertion or removal.
• Do not reuse disposable needles.
NOTE: Your vial of multiple-dose bacteriostatic water is good for 30 days after opening. If you plan to use your newly opened bottle to remix in a couple weeks, store it in the refrigerator. If not, discard it. Your HCG solution will be good for up to 30 days. The expiration date does not apply to any HCG you mix during that 30 days.
I hope all this helps you as you start your weight loss journey!
