0.4 mL to units
0.4 mL is 40 units on a U-100 insulin syringe. 1 mL is 100 units, so multiply mL by 100. 0.4 mL is the same as 0.4 cc.
0.4 mL on different syringes
| Syringe | 0.4 mL = | Capacity |
|---|---|---|
| U-100, 0.3 mL barrel · 30 units | 40 units | Does not fit |
| U-100, 0.5 mL barrel · 50 units | 40 units | Fits |
| U-100, 1 mL barrel · 100 units | 40 units | Fits |
| U-40 · 40 units = 1 mL | 16 units | Different scale |
How much of the vial 0.4 mL is
A draw of 0.4 mL (40 units) takes a fixed share of the liquid in the vial. The share depends only on how much water was added. The last two columns apply that share to a 5 mg and a 10 mg vial.
| Water added | Share of vial | From a 5 mg vial | From a 10 mg vial |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 mL | 40% | 2 mg | 4 mg |
| 2 mL | 20% | 1 mg | 2 mg |
| 3 mL | 13.33% | 0.6667 mg · 666.7 mcg | 1.333 mg |
| 5 mL | 8% | 0.4 mg · 400 mcg | 0.8 mg · 800 mcg |

Questions
How many units is 0.4 mL?
40 units on a U-100 insulin syringe. 1 mL is 100 units, so multiply mL by 100.
Is 0.4 mL the same as 0.4 cc?
Yes. A cc and a mL are the same volume, so 0.4 cc is also 40 units on a U-100 syringe.
How many units is 0.4 mL on a U-40 syringe?
16 units. A U-40 syringe is marked so that 40 units is 1 mL, so the same volume reads as a smaller number than on a U-100 syringe.
How many mg is in 0.4 mL?
Multiply 0.4 mL by the concentration in mg/mL. At 5 mg/mL it is 2 mg; at 10 mg/mL it is 4 mg.
How much of a vial is 0.4 mL?
Divide 0.4 by the mL of water added. If 2 mL was added, 0.4 mL is 20% of the vial.
