Abstract

A dosing bottle made in one piece from plastic using a blow molding or an injection molding method. With at least one mash seam or a constriction in the bottle walls, a separate dosing chamber with an opening passing through to an inside of the bottle is formed at a bottom of the bottle. The dosing chamber communicates with an outlet tube which runs through the inside of the bottle to an opening in such a manner that whenever the bottle is tipped forwards by 90° to 180° from its upright position into a pouring position, only the liquid in dosing chamber can be poured out of the bottle.
