Last night I attended a conference together with my wife. The subject was related to a 
certain drug (medicine) and it's effects/usage.

The speaker used SI correctly throughout the entire presentation. However, one item 
caught my attention and I decided to bring it up to the list since we are also 
debating things like km/h versus m/s.

He used ml/d and in another instance written as ml/day.

You will (hopefully) all agree that it is a useful way to describe the drug's dosage 
as mass or volume per day. However, I don't remember the SI allowing the symbol "d" 
for day (or maybe diem).
