30 mg vial + 1 mL bacteriostatic water
A 30 mg vial reconstituted with 1 mL comes to 30 mg/mL. Every unit on a U-100 insulin syringe then carries 300 mcg, so 500 mcg is 1.7 units (0.017 mL) and the vial holds 60 draws of that size.

Same vial, other volumes
The mass does not move. Only the concentration and the unit count do.

Same concentration, different vial
These pairs also come to 30 mg/mL, so their unit counts match this page exactly; only the number of draws per vial differs: 15 mg + 0.5 mL, 60 mg + 2 mL.

30 mg + 1 mL questions
What concentration is 30 mg in 1 mL?
30 mg divided by 1 mL is 30 mg/mL, which is 30,000 mcg/mL. On a U-100 syringe each unit holds 0.01 mL, so one unit carries 300 mcg.
How many units is 500 mcg from a 30 mg vial with 1 mL?
500 mcg divided by 30,000 mcg/mL is 0.017 mL, which is 1.7 units on a U-100 syringe and 0.67 units on a U-40 syringe. The vial holds 60 draws of that size.
What if I add 1.5 mL instead of 1 mL to the 30 mg vial?
The mass stays 30 mg. With 1.5 mL the concentration is 20 mg/mL instead of 30 mg/mL, so the same amount per draw needs more units: 500 mcg becomes 2.5 units instead of 1.7.
Does a 30 mg vial hold 1 mL?
Usually. Most lyophilized peptide vials are 2 mL or 3 mL glass, and 1 mL fits with room to swirl. Check the vial if it is an unusually small format.
