Forum rules
Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,
Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.
All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page
Thank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

conversion from units to mg's

I am trying to figure out a needle conversion. I am surpose to take 30 "mg"(1ml) of a anti-inflammatory medication for my headaches, but I only have insulin needles and they are 1 "unit" (3/10 of a cc) how many "units" do I have to do to equal 30"mg"? I could probably figure this out on paper, but my brain isn't working right now. LOL

Insulin syringes don't come in a "one unit" size that I'm aware of. Although syringes do come in different sizes . . .
. . . I'm wondering why you have 3/10 cc syringes when it seems an injectable anti-inflammatory medication would be prescribed by a Doctor. If that's the case, surely the Doctor or Pharmacist wouldn't give you the wrong size syringes!
In case (s)he did give you the wrong syringes, I suggest you take them (and the medication) back to the pharmacy where you got them and ask them to explain.
