Please keep in mind that I'm just a Bubba stumbling through all of this stuff.
With the quality and potency of your Chinese stuff being such an unknown I'm thinking there isn't much point even worrying about what went on with that. But whatever!
So, wouldn't adding 250 U-100 units of water (2.5ml) to 100mcg of alprostadil powder give you 2.5ml of an Edex 40 equivalent. Or if you prefer 2 1/2 Edex 40s all mixed in one vial, or 5 Edex 20s or 10 Edex 10s? What's the point in all of that confusion?
Knowing what I think I know now, were I in that situation, I'd just dilute the powder in 1ml of water and try injecting 8 to 10 units. But that's for me based on my personal experiences. Not a recommendation for you.
My stuff comes in liquid form. I've tried to get the pharmacist to dispense it in powder form for the sake of non-refrigerated travel. The response I got was that it was theoretically possible but there were sterility issues that would be difficult and they didn't want to go there. That's not what he said but due to my ignorance of pharmacy stuff that's what I got out of what he said.

Now i am out and have edex but where to start
I'm not a medical professional of any kind. I'd be reckless to give you specific advice on dosing. You'd be foolish to trust any dosing advice I'd give.
My first uro gave me Edex 20s and really no instructions other than what was included in the box when I got my script filled. I'd have hoped your doctor would do better than that.
IF I'm understanding you correctly, you seem to have a pretty good understanding of the comparisons of what you were taking and what you now have. I'm
GUESSING that along with the other drugs in your Tri-mix you were taking a little more than the equivalent of an Edex 10 (I calculated 11mcg). You said you now have Edex 40s. So half of an Edex 40 would give you the equivalent of an Edex 20 and a quarter of an Edex 40 would of course equal an Edex 10. As you needed so much of the other drugs along with the 11mcg of PGE-1, I'm guessing an Edex 10 ain't gonna get it done. As I think I said previously, I started with a full Edex 20 and found it to be too much once I had it all figured out.
So, that's where I started (Edex 20) but after I got my routine worked out an Edex 20 was a little too much. I had several incidents that bordered on meeting the standards for an ER trip for a priapism. If they made such things I'd now be using the equivalent of an Edex 12. That's
ASSUMING the relative strength of my compounded Mono-mix corresponds to the Edex strengths. If so, my mix is equal to an Edex 80, which they don't make. So I figure (at 15 units) I'm taking what would be a bit more than half of an Edex 20.
If any of that made any sense, and assuming my math is correct, which is a
very risky assumption, perhaps you can use my experience as some sort of a foolish guide.

Well I'm actually doing close to 15 units currently. But, as I mentioned above I think what I'm doing kinda equates to what would be just over half of an Edex 20 for 12mcg alprostadil or PGE-1.
Obviously with my pharmacy compounded Mono-mix I'm injecting considerably less volume to achieve the same dose as I would if using an Edex cartridge. This could also explain why I find it necessary to inject so slowly to avoid pain, possibly due to my concentrated mix.
I sure hope all of that made some sense. I also hope my math was at least close to correct. I'm really lousy at math and my brain now hurts from trying to figure it out.
Good luck.
