Units, mL and mg

How VialVine converts between syringe units, mL and mg.

On a U-100 insulin syringe, 100 units = 1 mL. Once VialVine knows how much is in a container and the liquid it holds, it converts automatically.

  1. 1Record the liquid: Reconstitute a vial, or enter the liquid in a premixed vial or cartridge.
  2. 2Log in whichever you prefer, units or mg. VialVine fills in the other and shows both.
  3. 3Every entry counts toward what's left, whatever unit you logged in.

Example: 10 mg mixed with 2 mL is 5 mg per mL. 20 units is 0.2 mL, which is 1 mg.

Good to know

  • Units are always whole numbers.
  • If VialVine says an entry couldn't be counted, the container is missing its liquid amount. Add it and it recounts.
