Problems solved by technology

Snoring is a serious problem for a large segment of the population.
Mild cases may result in no more than fitful sleep by the sufferer, while severe cases can cause disturbance of the sleep of others, and may result in insufficient inhalation of oxygen by the sufferer, apnea and, in extreme cases, death.
Although surgery has been proven to be somewhat effective, it is a radical and expensive approach that is subject to all the usual risks associated with surgery.
Anti-snoring sprays can tend to be ineffective unless applied repeatedly during the night.
Additionally, device sterilization is a concern when administering anti-snoring sprays due to the potential for infection since the sprays are introduced directly into the lungs in a manner that at least partially bypasses the patient's natural defense mechanisms.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present disclosure generally relates to administering a substance to the throat. More particularly, the aspects of the disclosed embodiments relate to administering a substance to the throat via the nose using a blow-fill-mold style bottle.[0002]Devices are available for administering active substances or substances to the body, particularly through the throat, lungs or sinuses. These devices generally include containers that have a main chamber holding the desired contents and a head portion that is inserted into the nose or mouth. By squeezing the container, the substance is released into the nose or mouth. In some cases, the device has a tab or seal that must be broken in order to release the substance. A relatively narrow neck on the device can form the outlet channel from the main chamber into the head portion. This outlet channel can sealed by a frangible membrane that is typically formed by placing a crimp, tab or seal across the head port...
