In pharmacology, the International unit (IU, alternatively abbreviated UI) is a unit of measurement for the amount of a substance, based on measured biological activity (or effect).
To define an IU of a substance, the Committee on Biological Standardization of the World Health Organization provides a reference preparation of the substance, (arbitrarily) sets the number of IUs contained in that preparation, and specifies a biological procedure to compare other preparations to the reference preparation.
For some substances, the equivalent mass of one IU is later established, and the IU is then officially abandoned for that substance.
