[NAGDU] How Many Dropperfuls if Bach's Rescue Remedy is Four Drops?

[Julie Johnson]

If it's easier, Rescue Remedy also comes in a spray and an ointment.  
It's been a long while since I used either, but I'm remembering I gave 
one spritz from the spray bottle into the pocket of the cheek.  So you 
pull the cheek away from the teeth and the space created is where I'd 
squirt the Rescue Remedy.  The ointment I'd rub on the inside of the ear 
flap, not down inside the ear, just the floppy part that hangs down.
