Morphine is up to 10 times stronger than codeine on a mg per mg basis. Codeine is not an active pain killer until it is converted to morphine in the liver. People have different rates of conversion so it is hard to give an exact dose equivalent.

To take 4.1mg of medicine how much is that in ml?

It depends on the concentration of the medicine in the first place. For example if the medicine is 100mg/100ml, the quantity to get 4.1mg would be 4.1mg. If it were 100mg/1ml, the quantity would differ. It would only be .041ml. You have to do this equation --> (mg of medicine you want) multiplied by the concentration of the medication.So, 4.1mg x (1ml/100mg) yields .041mg. Make sure the mg is on the bottom in order for the units to cancel out.
