Generally 1000 units. This goes for humalog and lantus.

20 days
There is 1000 Units per bottle so 10 units a day will last 100 days..
you don't ever want to draw up 125 units of insulin to admiminster. This is a lethal dose and can cause death if given at one time
Syringes are marked for measuring insulin.
To calculate the days' supply of Humulin N insulin, you need to determine the total number of units in the 20 mL vial. Humulin N typically has a concentration of 100 units/mL, so a 20 mL vial contains 2,000 units (20 mL x 100 units/mL). If the daily dose is 40 units, the days' supply would be 2,000 units divided by 40 units/day, which equals 50 days. Therefore, the 20 mL vial would last for 50 days at a dose of 40 units daily.
To find out how many ml from the vial are equal to 125 units, we have to first determine the concentration of the solution (units per ml). We can do this by dividing the total units (10,000) by the total volume (10 ml), which gives us 1000 units/ml. Then, we divide the number of units we want (125) by the concentration (1000 units/ml) to find that 0.125 ml from the vial is equal to 125 units.

"When using an insulin pump, the reservoir needs to be filled with insulin. You do this by drawing insulin from a vial into the reservoir with the plunger, and then removing the needle."
To determine how long a 100 mL vial will last when taking 80 units per day, you first need to know the concentration of the solution (i.e., how many units are in each mL). For example, if the concentration is 100 units/mL, then the vial contains 10,000 units total. Dividing 10,000 units by 80 units per day means the vial would last 125 days. Adjust the calculation based on the actual concentration to get the correct duration.
Yes, regular insulin (short-acting) and NPH insulin (intermediate-acting) can be mixed together in the same syringe. However, it is important to follow proper mixing techniques and dosage guidelines as instructed by your healthcare provider to ensure accurate dosing and effectiveness of the insulin.
You cannot make a direct conversion of insulin IU to ml. It depends on the concentration of insulin in the vial you are using. One commonly used concentration is 100 IU/ml, (sometimes called "U100") but this is NOT true for all insulin. If the concentration is 100 IU/ml, then each ml contains 100 IU and the conversion is 100 units = 1 ml.
