Milligrams to Micrograms

Microgram or microgramme is a unit of mass equal to one millionth (1×10⁻⁶) of a gram. The unit symbol is μg according to the International System of Units; the recommended symbol in the United States and United Kingdom when communicating medical information is mcg. In μg the prefix symbol for micro- is the Greek letter μ (Mu).

The milligram is the mass equal to 1/1,000 of a gram, or 0.0154 grains.

The milligram, or milligramme, is an SI unit of weight in the metric system. In the metric system, "milli" is the prefix for 10^-3. Milligrams can be abbreviated as mg; for example, 1 milligram can be written as 1 mg.

How to convert Milligrams to Micrograms

1 milligram (mg) is equal to 1000 micrograms (μg).

1 mg = 1000 μg

The mass m in micrograms (μg) is equal to the mass m in milligrams (mg) times 1000:

m_(μg) = m_(mg) × 1000

Example

Convert 5mg to micrograms:

m_(μg) = 5 mg × 1000 = 5000 μg
