How to convert Milligrams to Micrograms

1 milligram (mg) is equal to 1000 micrograms (μg).

1 mg = 1000 μg

The mass m in micrograms (μg) is equal to the mass m in milligrams (mg) times 1000:

m(μg) = m(mg) × 1000

Example

Convert 5mg to micrograms:

m(μg) = 5 mg × 1000 = 5000 μg

Converting Method & Use

Milligram is the larger unit as compared to microgram so we have to go for multiplication as we do in maths to change a larger value into the smaller one.

 

Here we multiply the value of mg by 1000 to convert them into micrograms as we know one mg comprises 1000 μg. 

Is 1mg the same as 1000 mcg?
