Percent Solution ↔ mg/mL Converter
Convert solution strength between % (w/v) and mg/mL — decode '2% lidocaine' into milligrams per millilitre.
The key identity: every 1% is 10 mg/mL. So 2% lidocaine = 20 mg/mL, 0.9% saline = 9 mg/mL, 5% dextrose = 50 mg/mL. This trips up dose checks constantly — a '1% solution, give 5 mL' order means 50 mg. Adrenaline is the dangerous exception: it's labelled as a ratio (1:1000 = 1 mg/mL), not a percent.
