Ml and CC are the same abbreviated units of volume. MG is the unit of
weight. For water and water based suspensions you can use ml, cc or mg
interchangeably only because the density of water is equal to 1(1ml = 1gm).
For oil based liquids weights and volume will be different. Simon RPh.

Silly question but... are a cc, ml, and mg the same? I was told to give
Critter 2 ml of Benedryl for his asthma but my syringes say mg and cc.
