+> I'm reading a paper that reports a serum potassium of 4.2 mEq/L. I'm more used to mmol/L. Is there a conversion, and are they the same thing?
+
+**Med Advisor**
+
+Yes, they're the same thing — mEq/L and mmol/L are equivalent units for potassium concentration.
+
+**Conversion:**  
+1 mEq/L = 1 mmol/L. So a serum potassium of **4.2 mEq/L is exactly 4.2 mmol/L**.
+
+A few practical points:
+
+- **Reference range** is often given in mmol/L (e.g., roughly 3.5–5.0 mmol/L), so 4.2 falls within the typical normal range.
+- Potassium is reported in both units across labs, and the conversion is a simple 1:1 ratio.
+- If you see a potassium value in both units, they're interchangeable for clinical interpretation.
+
+One caveat: unit labels can occasionally be misread or inconsistently reported, but when both are mEq/L or both mmol/L, the number is identical. If you have the full lab report, the units are usually specified clearly. For any personal or patient-specific interpretation, a clinician or lab report should be consulted.

+**User**
+
+> That makes sense — is the 1:1 ratio because potassium is monovalent, so mEq equals mmol times valence? Would that mean a divalent ion like calcium or magnesium wouldn't be a 1:1 conversion?
+
+**Med Advisor**
+
+Yes — that's exactly right.
+
+**Why the 1:1 ratio:**  
+Potassium has a valence of +1. The formula for milliequivalents is:
+
+**mEq = mmol × valence**
+
+So for potassium:
+
+**mEq = mmol × 1**  
+→ mEq/L = mmol/L
+
+**For divalent ions (valence 2):**  
+Calcium and magnesium are both +2, so:
+
+**mEq = mmol × 2**
+
+Which means:
+
+**1 mmol/L of calcium = 2 mEq/L**  
+**1 mmol/L of magnesium = 2 mEq/L**
+
+So calcium and magnesium are **not** a 1:1 conversion — their mEq values are double their mmol values. That's why calcium and magnesium are often reported in mg/dL or mmol/L rather than mEq/L, and why a lab report's unit label matters for interpretation.
+
+**Quick reference:**
+- Potassium: 1:1 (monovalent)
+- Calcium: 1 mmol = 2 mEq
+- Magnesium: 1 mmol = 2 mEq
+
+This distinction is important when comparing values across labs or units, especially in clinical settings where different units are used. For any specific lab report or patient interpretation, a clinician or the lab's documentation should guide the meaning.
