About Milligrams
A milligram (mg) is one thousandth of a gram (10⁻³ g). It is the primary unit for pharmaceutical dosing: aspirin tablets are typically 500 mg, ibuprofen 200-400 mg, and melatonin supplements 0.5-10 mg. Precious metal assay results and alloy compositions are specified in milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg = ppm). Nutritional labels worldwide list mineral content in milligrams - the recommended daily intake of iron is 8-18 mg, calcium 1000 mg, and sodium under 2300 mg. A grain of rice weighs about 25-30 mg, and a medium eyelash approximately 0.1 mg.
