[blparent] [Bulk] Re: i have some questions

[Tammy, Paul and Colyn]

HI,

It's not just meds you might need to measure out, but vitamins, gripe water 
or similar, etc, and you can't always measure out the dose you need with 
those droppers that come with the bottles.  Cyringes work the best for these 
purposes as it's useful for  different doses and different things.
