since 100 IU unit of heparin is equivalent to 1mg, 50mg must be equal to 5000 IU units of heparin.
IU (international units) is based on the effect of a substance, not on its mass. The amount of mass for one IU varies from one substance to another.
IU is international units and it's same whether it's of 40 IU or 100 IU insulin. But one is supposed to use 40 iu syringe for 40 IU and 100 IU syringe for 100 IU insulin. You take 30 units in corresponding syringe, dose is gonna remain same. If you interchange the syringe then things get complicated and need to do some math. So for 30 units of 40 IU insulin and want to use 100 IU/ml syringe then you need to use 75 units of 40 IU in 100 IU syringe. Avoid interchange of syringe to be safe.
