Therefore, we stated in the CY 2025 PFS proposed rule that we do not believe it is appropriate to bundle the weekly and monthly formulations into a single bundled payment since, unlike Sublocade, Brixadi formulations have different payment limits, and pricing them under the same bundle would not adequately represent the average costs incurred in furnishing these different formulations in an OTP setting

How to calculate units per dose for any vial The formula has three steps: Step 1 calculate concentration after reconstitution: concentration (mg/mL) = vial mg bac water mL Step 2 convert target dose to mL: dose mL = target dose mg concentration mg/mL Step 3 convert mL to U-100 syringe units: units = dose mL 100 Or combined into one line: units = (target dose mg vial mg) (bac water mL 100) Worked example 5 mg BPC-157 + 2 mL bac water, 250 mcg dose: Concentration: 5 2 = 2.5 mg/mL Dose mL: 0.25 2.5 = 0.1 mL Units: 0.1 100 = 10 units Worked example 10 mg tirzepatide + 2 mL bac water, 2.5 mg dose: Concentration: 10 2 = 5 mg/mL Dose mL: 2.5 5 = 0.5 mL Units: 0.5 100 = 50 units (half a 1 mL syringe) Worked example 50 mg GHK-Cu + 5 mL bac water, 2 mg dose: Concentration: 50 5 = 10 mg/mL Dose mL: 2 10 = 0.2 mL Units: 0.2 100 = 20 units Mistake 1 choosing bac water volume by feel instead of by target unit count
