 2.5 is 2-1/2 and 2.5 is the proper way to type it.  It should be 2.5 mL in your sentence on your post.  This is the rule for medications and recently they changed the way they want us to transcribe cc to mL, which was always the equivalent of each other and I don't know why they changed it (maybe they were bored).  I understand that they think cc can be "miswritten" and "misread" as something else, but I think that should be directed at handwritten orders and documentation, not transcribed orders or documentation that is typed.  The bottom line is they don't care what we think and we need to do it their way.  I would never ever type 2.5 mL as 2-1/2 because it is not correct or professional to do so.  Sometimes I think they just are bored and think of something to "fix."
