Supplement & Drug Dosage Converter

Convert supplement and drug dosing between milligrams (mg), micrograms (mcg), and International Units (IU) based on specific substances.

Clinical Dosage Presets
Standard mass unit (1 mg = 1,000 mcg)
Extremely precise mass unit (1 mcg = 0.001 mg)
Biologically active unit (conversion varies by substance)
Biological Conversion Breakdown
Conversion Constants for Vitamin D (Cholecalciferol D3 / D2)
1 mcg is equivalent to:40.00000 IU
1 IU is equivalent to:0.0250 mcg

International Units (IU) are used to measure the biological effect of fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E) and certain hormones, rather than physical mass.

Vitamin D3: 1 mcg is exactly 40 IU. Thus, 50 mcg (or 0.05 mg) represents 2000 IU, a standard daily nutritional value.

Vitamin E Natural vs. Synthetic: Natural (d-alpha-tocopherol) has higher biological potency per milligram than synthetic (dl-alpha-tocopherol), requiring fewer mg to reach the same IU value.
