Historically potency of a biological was measured by bioassay, because the material could not be fully defined chemically. The unit was the activity of a defined amount of a reference preparation. As recombinant proteins became chemically defined, the unit was fixed to mass by assigning a value to a pure reference, which is what the somatropin standard does.
The international standard is held and distributed by a WHO custodian laboratory.
Clinical practice grew up with IU, and the unit survives on labels and in the literature. Analytical work uses milligrams. The 3 to 1 ratio is a definition, not a measurement, so the conversion is exact for material calibrated against the standard.
Older pituitary-derived preparations had different, assay-based unit values, which is one reason historical figures do not convert cleanly.
Pack: 24 mg, 72 IU, one vial, with water. Retired entries: 36 mg (108 IU) loose vial; 144 IU as two 72 IU vials; 36 IU pre-filled pen. All follow the 3 IU per mg definition.
