cc=ml=iu=mg=mcg ?????

Just a brief conversion I know this came up a lot on the old board.

1 cc (cubic centimetre) = 1 ml (milliliter ) these are volume measurements.

A mg measures the dosage of the drug a mg = 1/1000 of a g (gram)

1 mcg (microgram) = 1/1000 milligram

An IU (International Unit) is a measurement of fluid

So:

10cc = 10ml

Take Sust 250mg/ml = 250mg (The strength of the drug or dosage) per ml of fluid.So if you wanted to use 500mg this would require 2ml

If you are not sure always check prior to injecting/swallowing

Good post Billy. That helps a lot of people because I know there were a lot of people on the old board that got confused over this.

Spot on!

BA

just asking a question on this billy but doesnt ml mean millliter and mm mean millimeter?

Congratulations out of 177 views you are the only one who spotted the deliborate mistake

Ok Ok I screwed up and please forgive me for I have now changed it!!

Billy:)

always here for you man

Ah well good for you!

BA

Could someone please excuse my ignorance and tell me how to get a bloody pic on here b,c I can not get the F*****G thing to work

Thanks
Billy

The attach file down the bottom just under options.

In theory anyway!

BA

Nah I,ve tried that bro!! Any other ideas??

Billy

PM PtbyJason, he will know!

BA

I take it you guys both like Dorian huh?

IG who,s Dorian?? ...LOL

He,s English bro what more can I say than that apart from the small matter of being MR O!!

bump. newbie asked a question about this today

international unit (IU)
a unit used to measure the activity (that is, the effect) of many vitamins and drugs. For each substance to which this unit applies, there is an international agreement specifying the biological effect expected with a dose of 1 IU. Other quantities of the substance are then expressed as multiples of this standard. Examples: 1 IU represents 45.5 micrograms of a standard preparation of insulin or 0.6 microgram of a standard preparation of penicillin. Consumers most often see IU's on the labels of vitamin packages: in standard preparations the equivalent of 1 IU is 0.3 microgram (0.0003 mg) for vitamin A, 50 micrograms (0.05 mg) for vitamin C, 25 nanograms (0.000 025 mg) for vitamin D, and 2/3 milligram for vitamin E. Please note: for many substances there is no definite conversion between international units and mass units (such as milligrams). This is because preparations of those substances vary in activity, so that the effect per milligram of one preparation is different from that of another.

Thanks for the information, much needed.
Good post guys

What is the difference between and IU and USP?

Hey guys, Great website, just got a few questions... My first question is what is the conversion or simularities between mg and ml.. I see that ur suppose to take 400mg of deca a week but i hear that u would want to take about 4cc a week of deca. Is this comparing tabs to liquid? Also, Has anyone heard of this new stuff thats being dropped called Niaprone or Neaprone (Not sure of the spelling), Apparently it's not for vetrenary use, just for people? Please drop me a line if u know anything of this stuff.. thanx

here's a question how many iu's are in a cc/ml? I wonder

An IU is dependent upon the substance. There is no universal conversion.

well I'll be ****ed, Well the reason I asked is b/c I got a buddy who has a bunch of iu pins. He wants to start spot inj. and I didn't know if those would work.

What he got were insulin pins I assume. If they are U=100 pins, then each IU is 10microliters, each 10IU mark is 0.1cc. This is only because they're designed specifically for U-100 insulin, which is made in a standard concentration of 100IU/mL.
So, he can use them, but if it's anything oil-based, it'll be slow.

I'll tell him to forget it. That means to get 1ml he has to poke 10 times,LOL that's not even worth it.

No, 1mL is 100IU on a U-100 slin pin.

so what's the typical GH content per ml? how many IU per ML of the injections? Thanks... :scratch:

It comes lyophilized ("powder"), so you can reconstitute it in any volume of water you want really. Typically (Jinotropin), you'll have a 10IU vial, and you'll reconstitute in 1mL, so each IU of GH is 0.1cc(mL). If you use a U-100 insulin syringe, each 10IU mark is 0.1cc, so each increment of 10 insulin IUs will represent one IU of GH, if reconstituted as stated above.

thanks bro... i do recall seeing GH in liquid form that my friends keep in the fridge... is that possible as well? i assume each file probably comes as a single dosage for daily injection? thanks!

There are some that come already reconstituted (nutropin is one). Most brands come lyophilized and need to be reconstituted, upon doing so, will need to be refridgerated.

ahh, so it's better to get the power form so it last longer? kewl, i'll keep that in mind... but what kind of liquid should i purchase to reconsitute? di water?

Nutropin is really the only brand I can think of that comes in solution anyway. Most GH comes with sterile water in their GH "kits", which are vials of powder and amps of sterile water. You can also buy BW, but it doesn't make any real difference.

I have so many people ask me this question. Good educational post.. BUMP

I going to have to bump this thread again, I see these questions coming up alot... BUMP!

Very Knowledgeable, thread with lots of great followups, Thanks guys

BTW, being a newbie, what is a bump?? And how do i do it if it is more than an expression?

You just did your first bump w/o even knowing it....congrats.

Just a simple post to get a thread to the top of the page.

Good post Billy......... I KNOW this helped a lot of people

How many ml's per oz????

I just received some gear from a unnamed website. Here is my question

Are the 2ml Nandrolone Decoanoate from Norma Hellas supposed tobe half full? If so is 1ml equal to 100mg?

Thanks, your answers will really help a novice. I have learned so much from this site.

Mr. Wonderful
(One of my teachers gave me that nickname)

Being a newbie, I did not see that this is not where to post questions, I will post my question in the right place.
