Convert Mg To mL
Use our mg to mL converter to easily convert milligrams (mg) into milliliters (mL). Whether you’re working in medicine, cooking, or science, accurate measurement conversions are essential. This mg to mL calculator helps you convert the weight of a liquid into its volume in seconds. You can also perform the reverse conversion with our mL to mg calculator.
How to Convert Milligrams to Milliliters
Milligram is a unit of mass and milliliter is a unit of volume. Both units have different physical quantities, so we need to know the density of the substance to perform the conversion.
Mg to mL Formula:
To convert from milligrams to milliliters, divide the weight by the density of the substance (density must be in mg/mL).
If the density is given in grams per milliliter (g/mL), multiply it by 1,000 to convert it to mg/mL.
milliliters = milligrams / (density × 1,000)
Example:
Convert 1000 mg to milliliters for a substance with a density of 0.7 g/mL:
- milliliters = 1000 mg / (0.7 g/mL × 1,000) = 1.42 mL
How many MG in a ML?
The number of milligrams (mg) in a milliliter (mL) depends on the substance’s density. For water (density = 1 g/mL), the conversion is direct:
- 1 mL of water = 1000 mg
Mg to mL Drug/Medication Conversion
For medications, the concentration (mg/mL) is crucial. Unlike water, medicines have specific concentrations. Use this formula:
Formula:
Volume (mL) = Dose (mg) ÷ Concentration (mg/mL)
Example:
If a drug has a concentration of 50 mg/mL and you need 100 mg:
100 ÷ 50 = 2 mL
⚠️ Disclaimer: Always follow the prescription label or consult a healthcare professional for drug conversions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is 50 mg converted to mL?
A: 50 mg converted to mL is 0.05 mL for substances with a density of 1000 mg/mL (like water).
Q: How much is 20 mg of cooking oil in mL?
A: Cooking oil has a density of ~920 mg/mL. So, 20 mg = 0.021 mL.
Q: Does 1 mg equal 1 mL?
A: No, 1 mg does not equal 1 mL. The conversion depends on the substance’s density.
Q: Is it possible to convert mg to mL?
A: Yes! Use the formula mL = mg / density (mg/mL) or our converter for quick results.
