There are 1000 micrograms (mcg or µg) in 1 milligram (mg).
there are 1,000 micrograms in a miligram, so to convert mg to mcg you need to multiply by 1,000 (or move the decimal 3 spots to the right) giving you 50 mcgs. To convert mcg to mg you would divide by 1,000 or move the decimal 3 spots to the left. Lester
1 mg = 1 000 μg The answer is 5 000/3 = 1 666 doses
To start off, mg=milligrams and mcg=micrograms. milli- can be replaced with 10-3 while micro- can be replaced with 10-6 0.05mg can be rewritten as 0.05*10-3g To get the value in mcg (10-6), you need to multiply by 103 and by 10-3 like this: [0.05 * (103)] * [10-3 * (10-3)] g = 50 * 10-6 g = 50mcg So yes, 0.05 mg is equal to 50mcg.
10,000 IU of vitamin A is equivalent to 3,000 mcg.
No. There are 1000 micrograms in 1 milligram. 3 mg = 3,000 mcg 900 mcg = 0.9 mg
They are the same. No they are not. 1 milligram is 1/1,000 of a gram (milli = thousandth). 1 microgram = 1/1,000,000 of a gram (micro = millionth). So 300 micrograms is equal to .3 milligrams. The answer to the question is that the 300 mcg tablet is a smaller dose.
No, it equals 0.3 milligrams. 3,000 micrograms(mcg) would equal 3 milligrams(mg).
An mcg is a microgram, or 10^(-6) of a gram. An mg is a milligram, 10^(-3) grams. Thus 1 mg is equal to 10^3, 1000 mcg.
To change mg to mcg, add 3 zeros. 5mg = 5000mcg. That's all there is to it!
Wrong. They are not equal. 300 mcg equals .3 mg.And if the questioner is like me, he/she is trying to figure out the difference b/w the two options most available at the store.They are equal.It's none of my business, but if you can't convert the units, maybe you should only take exactly what was recommended, so at least you can accurately describe what you put in your body in case something goes wrong.
To convert micrograms (mcg) to milligrams (mg), divide by 1000. So, for 3 mcg: 3 mcg / 1000 = 0.003 mg.
10 mg is 10,000 mcg. Dividing this by 300 mcg gives 33 1/3.
There are 1000 micrograms (mcg or µg) in 1 milligram (mg).
mgs=milligrams mcgs=micrograms mgs=more so if you have 3 mgs in melatonin you would have to take 3,000 mcgs that would be 10 pills of 300 mcg you would only have to take 1 pill of 3 mg to equal that 3,000 mcgs Basically the micrograms are for people who need a mild mild mild sleep milligrams would be better for a good nights sleep trust me I know but nI have to take 6mgs to get an accurate sleep. You cant always go by weight here you must go by need of sleep. Example is my 8 yr old son who is a athletic kid with ADHD must take the same 6mg of melatonin. That's why you should always consult a DR or Pharmacist, you don't want to get the wrong dose.
There is 1000mcg in 1mg Therefore 300mcg is definitely less than 5mg(5000mcg) A 5mg pill has 15 & 2/3rds times more melatonin than 0.3mcg, almost 16 times the strength. I weigh 260 and take 20mg's every night, no grogginess in the morning - but a few wild dreams in five years of taking it. And 20mg's is 66 times 0.3mcg. I feel that 0.3mcg is a waste of time/money unless for an infant with a colicky problem
To convert milligrams (mg) to micrograms (mcg), you need to multiply by 1000 because 1 mg is equal to 1000 mcg. Therefore, 0.6 mg is equal to 600 mcg.
