50mg/ml is the concentration as supplied to the pharmacy, not the dose. The dose would be how many total milligrams were given, eg 5ml at 50 mg/ml would be a dose of 250mg.

As Keltoi stated this is often diluted in IV solution in varying amounts to give the final concentration, eg 250mg in .1 liter {100ml} of IV fluids would give a final concentration of 2.5mg per ml.

The last variable is the rate of delivery eg 50 ml per hour {often listed as cc}; for the above example the infusion time would be 2 hours

These details will be listed in the human trial protocol.
