There are 1,000 mg to a gram and 31.1 gm to an ounce.



If you have 100 mg/gm and you need a dose of, for instance, 50mg, then you need .5 gm. That is .016 oz. You will need some pretty accurate scales to measure this out. If you have access to a reloader's scale, that converts to 7.68 grains.



You will need to recalculate that to get the exact dosage you need. The numbers I gave will give you 50mg or the med. 1oz = 480 grains, 1gm = 15.4 grains.
