    1000iu slin syringe? I've only heard of 100's

    you need to find out if it is 1000iu/ml because I have seen 1/2 cc slin syringes.

    Lewd,the package says 1cc/mm but putting aside this needle is it true that in a regular needle 1cc = 1000iu?

    I'm pretty sure that iu stands for micro-grams, so one is a measurement of weight and the other a measurement of volume, that being cc's of course.
