There exists several characteristics that make the difference between a mixture and a compound. A mixture can contain components in any proportions while a compound contains components in fixed proportions.
Best Answer: the longest you should use an open vial of insulin for is 30 days but you will have a 20 day supply per vial if you are using U-100 insulin. 1 cc equals 100 units so a 10 ml bottle contains 1000 units, at 48 units per day that will last you 20 days. not equivalent syringes. use only insulin syringe and read type/ strength of insulin. Too dangerous to discuss on yahoo. not equivalent to TB syringes either.
Both the retail and mail order pharmacy ignored any special instructions and simply extrapolated the inject up to X units daily number. So to get what you need, the units per day number needs to be the one that you and your doctor change. Each box is 15mL of insulin (5 vials, 3mL per vial) at 100 units per mL. So each box is 1500 units of insulin. For your handy reference when working with your doctor, here are the units-per-day needed to get the given amount of insulin: 90 day supply. 1 box every 90d: 1500 units / 90d = 17 units per day; 2 boxes every 90d: 3000 units / 90d = 33 units per day; 3 boxes every 90d: 4500 units / 90d = 50 units per day; 30 day supply
