How insulin syringe markings work

  • 1 unit = 0.01 mL on a standard U-100 insulin syringe
  • 30-unit syringe = 0.3 mL total capacity
  • 50-unit syringe = 0.5 mL total capacity
  • 100-unit syringe = 1.0 mL total capacity

Our providers will determine the right dosing approach for you based on your labs and personalized assessment. If your dose or concentration looks different from your prescription label, contact your Defy Medical care team before injecting.
