Questions and answers on how to convert things from one unit or system to another

Forum rules

Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,

Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.

All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page

Thank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

Micrograms to Units

I'm working with interferon omega. I'm used to receiving this in measurements of units, but this is in Micrograms. Would anyone know the conversion from Units to Micrograms?

The best place to find this is in a pharmacology book

BUT BE WARNED

it can depend on the drug AND there are two types of units. In the Nursing Pharmacology book there are 4 different conversions listed for interferon depending on the type of interfeon and wether going to international or us units. The best idea is to go to your local pharmacy with the product and ask the pharmacist (not the helpers) or contact the manufacturer.

Even if you do get a specific answer on this forum, I would still go to the pharmacist or the manufacturer.
