I think that you are referring to the insulin syringe,not the needle. The standard insulin syringe holds one cc, divided into 100ths, which is equal to one UNIT of insulin. It is imperative that you are using a U100 insulin solution with a U100 syringe. If you don't, the incorrect dosage could be catastrophic. There are some smaller insulin syringes that only hold 0.5 cc (making them half the size of the 1cc). They are STILL marked properly for U100 insulin even though they are smaller in size. Hope that this helps!!clkfrau1@aol.com
Well, honey, if you're looking for 0.375 on a 100 unit syringe, you'll find it at the 3/8 mark. Just slide that plunger down until it hits that sweet spot, and you're good to go. Just make sure you're paying attention, we don't want any mix-ups with those meds, now do we?
In a syringe, 120 mg would be equivalent to 0.12 mL if the concentration of the medication is 1 mg/mL. This is calculated by dividing the total amount of medication (120 mg) by the concentration (1 mg/mL). It is important to always double-check calculations and measurements to ensure accurate dosing.

You can't convert that. A meter is a unit of length. An acre is a unit of area.
