If I add 2 mL of BAC water to a 10 mg vial, how many units is a 0.5 mg dose?

Asked 3 May 2026Modified 3 months agoViewed 3.3k times

My setup is a refrigerator with a logger and a small work area I wipe down, nothing more.

I want the working, not the result — I need to be able to redo it with different numbers.

I care about the precision as well as the value — I want to know how many figures are real.

Is my approach right even if my number is wrong?
