The terms milligrams (mg) and milliliters (ml) are measure of mass (weight) and volume, respectively. It's apples and Oranges. It is true that 1 mg of water equals 1 ml of water, but that water. To discover anything else, we need the density of the material in question. A a liquid measure of a medication has "other ingredients" in it. Consider a simple solution of table salt. Take an 8 ounce glass. You could put 1, 2, 3, or more teaspoons of salt in it and have a solution. This is the nature of the question here. There may be a conversion available to someone who know the concentration of the "active ingredient" in the substance in question, like a pharmacist. But the man on the street or even a knowledgeable investigator will need more information to offer a suggestion. And with medicine, a guess is not a good idea. Call your chemist and get the scoop from someone who has trained and has a computer and data base set up for questions like this one.

How many milliliters are in 25 milligrams of liquid allergy medicine?

That would depend on how dense the liquid is.


1 milliliter of liquid is what amount of milligrams?

Milligram is a weight and cannot be compared to a liquid volume.


Does 10 milliliters equal 10 milligrams of liquid medicine?

NO ! There's no way to know how many milligrams of medicine may be in solution in eachmilliliter of liquid, unless it's clearly indicated on the packaging. Nobody who would ask thisquestion has any business fooling around with his own or anybody else's dose of medicine.PLEASE consult a pharmacist before you put anything that you improvised into anyone's body.


How many milligrams are in a teaspoon of liquid?

It depends on the density of the liquid. However, on average, a teaspoon of liquid is approximately equivalent to 5 milliliters. If we assume a liquid with a density close to that of water, then 1 milliliter is roughly equivalent to 1 gram. So, in this case, a teaspoon of liquid would be approximately 5000 milligrams.


How many milligrams equals two milliliters?

The conversion of milligrams to milliliters depends on the density of the substance. If we assume water density, 1 milliliter of water weighs 1 gram, which is equivalent to 1000 milligrams. Therefore, 2 milliliters of water would be equal to 2000 milligrams.


You have liquid mication measured in milligrams but you have a mililiter dropper so if you need to take 10 mg how many ml would that be?

The conversion from milligrams (mg) to milliliters (ml) in this case is based on the density of the liquid medication. Without knowing the density, it's not possible to give an accurate answer. You would need to know the density of the liquid in order to calculate the volume in milliliters needed to deliver 10 mg of medication.


How many mg is in 8 fl oz?

none, there would be 240 milliliters, not milligrams


How many milliliters equal a milligrams?

There is no direct conversion between milliliters (mL) and milligrams (mg) as they measure different things - volume and mass, respectively. The relationship between them depends on the density of the substance you are working with. You would need to know the density of the substance in order to make a conversion.


How would you convert Millgrams into Millliters?

Milligrams and milliliters measure different things. For a specific substance, you can convert the milligrams to grams (dividing by 1000), then divide by the density of the substance (expressed in grams / milliliter), to get the volume (in milliliters).


How Drug 200 micrograms in 5 milliliters how many milliliters if prescribed 0.2 milligrams?

If 200 micrograms (0.2 mg) is in 5 milliliters, then there would be 0.04 milligrams (0.2 mg * 0.2) in 1 milliliter of the drug. Therefore, if 0.2 milligrams are prescribed, it would amount to 5 milliliters (0.2 mg / 0.04 mg/ml) of the drug.


How many milliters is 40 milligrams?

The conversion of milligrams to milliliters is not straightforward, as it depends on the density of the substance. However, if you are working with water or a substance with similar density (1 g/mL), then 40 milligrams would be equivalent to 0.04 milliliters.


How many milagrams equals 5 milaleters?

To convert milliliters to milligrams, you need to know the density of the substance being measured, as milliliters measure volume while milligrams measure mass. For water, 1 milliliter is approximately equal to 1000 milligrams, so 5 milliliters of water would equal around 5000 milligrams. However, this conversion can vary for other substances based on their density.
