mcg is a disreputable unit of measure. It means microgram - though deciphering the letters may not give you that. ugis a better abbreviation, with less chance of misunderstanding.

But to the question - it all depends upon the concentration of the insulin in the solution. For cc (a.k.a. ml) is a unit of volume.

How many cc's in 1 unit of insulin?

1 cc=100 units of Insulin so, 1 unit=0.01 cc Insulin


How many cc in 10 units of insulin?

There are 100 units in a CC. 1 CC = 1 mL So, 5 units is 5/100 (1/20, .05) of a CC.


How do you convert units to cc?

It depends on the type of insulin being used: For 100U insulin, 1 unit = 1/100 or 0.01 cc. For 40U insulin, 1 unit = 1/40 or 0.025 cc.


How many of cc is in 20 units of insulin?

Insulin is typically measured in units rather than milliliters (mL) or cubic centimeters (cc), but 1 mL is equivalent to 1 cc. Most insulin solutions are available in concentrations of 100 units/mL (U100). Therefore, 20 units of insulin would be 0.2 mL, which is equal to 0.2 cc.


How many shots of 70 cc of insulin of a bottle of 100ml?

To determine how many shots of 70 cc can be obtained from a 100 ml bottle of insulin, first convert 100 ml to cc, which is equivalent (1 ml = 1 cc). Therefore, a 100 ml bottle contains 100 cc. Dividing 100 cc by 70 cc per shot means you can get approximately 1.43 shots, which means you can administer 1 full shot of 70 cc, with some insulin left over.


How many units of insulin are in 1cc?

Insulin is typically measured in units rather than volume. In the context of U-100 insulin, which is the most common concentration, there are 100 units of insulin per 1 mL (or 1 cc). Therefore, 1 cc of U-100 insulin contains 100 units of insulin. Different concentrations of insulin may have different unit-to-volume ratios.


How many ML are in one IU of insulin?

The standard insulin syringe is a total of 1 ml ( 1 cc), but if you are not sure ask someone who can tell you. Too much insulin can be fatal.


Is cc and mcg the same thing?

No, they're completely different units. 1 cc (cubic centimeter) = 1 cm^3 (cubic centimeter) (these are units of volume) 1 mcg (microgram) = 0.001 mg (milligram) (these are units of mass) Here's a way to compare them: 1 cc of water has a mass of about 1 gram, or 1000000 micrograms.


1 mcg is how many mg?

1000 mcg = 1 mg Thus 1 mcg = 0.001 mg


How many mcg 1 mg?

1 microgram (mcg) is 1/1000mg or 0.001mg


Does 1 cc equal 1 mcg?

No. A microgram is a measure of mass. A cubic centimetre is a measure of volume. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, conversion from one to the other is not valid. If you are not convinced, consider a cubic centimetre of air. How many micrograms? Next consider a cubic centimetre of lead. How many micrograms?
