Just stepping in for a minute with a comment, if you don't mind ---I use a nasal prescription spray called Atrovent (for something entirely different). The 15 ml bottle gives 165 measured sprays. If you know stereochemistry, you can work out the dilution of the medication you're discussing to get an exact amount each time. Each spray gives the same amount of medication. The small plastic container can be rinsed out & reused. I reuse mine to make my own saline nasal spray.
If you don't trust yourself to do the calculations, I'm sure a high school chemistry teacher would be more than willing to help.
