Adding the numbers, since they settle part of this. Practical: unopened, refrigerated at 2 to 8°C; in use, refrigerated and used within the preservative-limited window; never frozen; and a visual check every time — a haze that does not settle is a reason to stop, not to wonder.

Following on from TrialNerd_Beth — and this may be the naive question:

How to check the arithmetic without trusting a website calculator, since three calculators gave me three answers?

Coming at Dr.NateNeph’s question from a different direction. Freezing is the one to avoid, and freeze-thaw more so. Ice-crystal formation and the concentration changes at the phase boundary drive aggregation, and aggregated peptide does not recover on thawing. A vial that has been frozen and thawed is not rescued by returning it to the fridge.

Closing the loop on my own question.

My error was treating units as a mass. Once I wrote mg/ml on the vial in marker and worked in millilitres first, the two of us got the same answer.

Agreed, and it is worth saying that rounding to the nearest whole unit is usually acceptable at maintenance doses and is not acceptable at the bottom of a ladder, where one unit can be a fifth of the intended dose.
