Mg to Cc Converter
Convert milligrams to cubic centimeters for medications, water, oils, and custom substances using concentration or density.
Milligrams to Cubic Centimeters
Milligrams (mg) measure mass while cubic centimeters (cc) measure volume. Because $1\ \text{cc} = 1\ \text{mL}$, converting mg to cc requires knowing the concentration of a medication or the density of a liquid.
Conversion Formulas
Medications:
$$cc = \frac{mg}{Concentration\ (mg/mL)}$$
Liquids by density:
$$cc = \frac{mg}{Density\ (mg/mL)}$$
Water has a density of about $1\ \text{g/mL}$, which equals $1{,}000\ \text{mg/mL}$.
Examples
- 200 mg of testosterone at 200 mg/mL = 1 cc
- 1,000 mg of water (density 1 g/mL) = 1 cc
- 500 mg of milk (density ~1.03 g/mL) ≈ 0.485 cc

Frequently Asked Questions
How many cc is 200 mg of testosterone?
It depends on concentration. At 200 mg/mL, 200 mg equals 1 cc. At 100 mg/mL, the same dose needs 2 cc.
Is cc the same as mL?
Yes. One cubic centimeter equals one milliliter. In medical dosing, cc and mL are interchangeable.
How do I find medication concentration?
Check the drug label. It usually shows mg/mL, such as 10 mg/mL or 50 mg/5 mL. For complex labels, divide the mg value by the mL value.
How do I convert cc back to mg?
Multiply cc by the concentration in mg/mL. For example, 2 cc of a 10 mg/mL solution contains 20 mg.
