Could anyone tell me how many cc's of 5 mg Vibramycin would be?

I know it depends on the strength, so on the bottle it says: 25 mg/5 mL.

THANKS!

If it helps, cc's are the same as mL's. Do you have a dropper that has mL's on it?

Unfortunately not, I only have a syringe with cc's.

If 25 mg = 5 mL. Then 5 mg = 1mL. So if 1 mL = 1 cc then... 5mg = 1 cc

I think that's right. I haven't taken a math class in ages!

Yup. at that strength - 1 ml would be 5mg of the Vibramycin. The 5 ml is one teaspoon, so you could probably measure out a scant 1/4 teaspoon though a syringe would be much better. If you have a dropper - one cc/ml is 20 drops.
