Frequently asked questions
How many milligrams are in one gram?
One gram equals 1,000 mg. The formula is mg = g × 1,000.
How do I convert grams to milligrams?
Use mg = g × 1,000. For example, 10 grams gives 10,000 mg. Enter your own value above and the converter does the arithmetic for you.
How do I convert milligrams back to grams?
Use the Milligrams to Grams converter, or invert the factor by dividing instead of multiplying.
Is this conversion exact?
The avoirdupois pound is defined as exactly 0.45359237 kg and the ounce as 1/16 of a pound, so mass conversions are exact apart from display rounding.
