Concentration choice is a precision decision, not a preference.

I am going to disagree with reconstituting low as a general rule. More diluent, more punctures, more in-use days at room temperature, and the stability trade-off is real. Precision is not the only variable being optimised.

That is the short version; the long version is somebody else's post.

One concrete data point for the thread. Practical numbers: half-life about 5 days, steady state 3 to 4 weeks, ladder 2.5 / 5 / 7.5 / 10 / 12.5 / 15mg, and the maintenance doses with published data behind them are 5, 10 and 15mg.

Adding the part of the answer the thread has not reached. Steady state is faster than people expect: half-life about five days, so you are at plateau in roughly three to four weeks rather than five. That matters when you are deciding whether a dose step has finished expressing itself.

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

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

Closing the loop on my own question.

Resolved. I wrote mg, ml and mg/ml on the vial in marker and did the division in that order, and the two of us now get the same number every time.
