About these numbers

The example mixes a 10 mg vial with 2 mL of water for 5 mg/mL, where a 2000 mcg (2 mg) dose is 0.4 mL, or 40 units. Tesamorelin is dosed once daily rather than weekly.

The dose depends on the formulation: the original Egrifta and the pivotal trials used 2 mg (2000 mcg) daily, while the reformulated EGRIFTA SV label specifies 1.4 mg (1400 mcg) daily. Same molecule, different reconstituted concentrations, so match the figure to your product.
