ABSTRACT:
In an apparatus for orally administering a dosage of a liquid, medication, or a suspension, to patients able to swallow but otherwise unable to independently ingest the liquid medication, or suspension, a sleeve is provided and includes a first open end and a closed second end. The sleeve defines an reservoir or reservoir, and a flange having an aperture extending therethrough and in communication with the reservoir extending outwardly from the second end. A hollow tube is attached to the flange and is adapted to be inserted into a patient's mouth to a point where the end of the tube is adjacent to the patient's throat. A plunger having an end adapted to slide and to seal against an interior wall of the reservoir is included and can move between a first and a second position to draw the liquid, medication, or suspension into the reservoir and inject it into the patient's mouth.
