Adding a reconstituted vial

This guide adds a vial that is already mixed and ready to draw from. If your vial is still powder that you mix yourself, follow the powder guide instead.

1

Open the protocol and tap "Add supply"

Open the protocol you want to stock.

Scroll to the "Inventory" section and tap "Add supply".

2

Choose the supply type

Choose the kind of supply you are adding.

This guide covers a reconstituted vial. Tap "Vial".

3

Confirm it is ready to use

A reconstituted vial is already mixed. Keep "Ready to use" selected.

Powder that you still need to mix has its own guide.

4

Enter the total amount

"Total amount" describes the whole vial. Enter the total powder in the vial and the total liquid it is mixed into, not a single dose.

A 10 mg vial mixed into 2 mL is 10 mg and 2 mL. The app divides them into a concentration of 5 mg/mL, and that concentration is what it uses to measure every dose.

5

See it as a strength

"Strength" is the same vial written as a concentration. If your label already gives a figure like 5 mg/mL, choose "Strength" and enter it directly.

5 mg/mL across 2 mL works out to 10 mg of powder, the same vial as the "Total amount" above. Use whichever figure your label shows.

6

Set the draw guide

The "Draw guide" sets the syringe scale you see when you draw a dose.

It is only a visual aid and does not change the dose you log. Pick the syringe you actually use.

7

Add any optional details

The remaining fields are optional.

You can set "Expires", "Brand", "Lot number", "Pharmacy", and "Notes". Tap "Save" when you are done.
