SI Unit Dangers
View through CrossRef
The recent commentary concerning SI units by the American Academy of Pediatrics' Committee on Drugs (Pediatrics 1989;83:129-131) pointed out some of the difficulties associated with conversion of drug concentrations to SI units. As further evidence of the potential dangers inherent in changing to a system of molar units, I would like to point out two errors, presumably typographical, in that very report. First, the statement was made that "a 125-mg tablet of erythromycin would become a 0.1703-mg tablet"; I believe a 0.1703-mmol tablet was intended.
