The prefilled numbers are an example input to draw the curve, not a dose; Pedplot does not suggest one. To step a dose up, add another row of the same compound with a later start day.

Not a blood level. The chart shows the estimated milligrams of the drug still in the body, so it will not match a lab result in ng/dL. How the model works. Washout continues after the last dose. Mixed IU and mg protocols are not summed.

Human growth hormone. Plasma half-life is hours, so the chart is a daily pulse — it does not build a long-ester depot. There is no ester, so the line is the dose itself. Also called Somatropin, Growth Hormone, Human Growth Hormone.

FDA somatropin labels: SC half-life 3.8 h (Humatrope), 3.0 h (Genotropin); Tmax ~4 h (Humatrope). How the model works.

The example curve

2 mg every day for 12 weeks. With a 4h half-life, it levels off around day 1. The row runs longer than that, so the plateau is on the chart. Between doses it runs from about 0.04 to 2.02 mg, a swing of 98%. Each dose is its own spike. After the last dose, the tail takes about 1 days to fall to a few percent.
