But now the drop is standardized in the metric system to equal exactly 0.05 milliliters.
perfect answer

A millimeter is a unit of distance not volume.

If you meant milliliter, there are 20 drops using the metric definition of 0.05 milliliters per drop.

It's a variable. Depends on the dropper, liquid, temperature, etc.
Go back through thread and read in particular posts 2, 9, 22, 23, 40 and a few others. If the answer really matters, experiment with your dropper and your liquid. Otherwise, about 20 give or take, if viscosity is close to that of water.

Default Re: how many drops in milliliter?

I'm a pharmacist and we use 20 drops/ml for calculating how many drops will be in a bottle of an eye drop we dispense. Insurance companies tend to use the same.

It's dependent on the type of medication and viscosity likely, but 20 is the standard answer.

Real life Example: 2.5ml bottle of Xalantan eye drop would have 50 drops. This given into each eye at bedtime would calculate to 25 days supply. If you send an electronic claim to the insurance for a lower day supply (ie. 10 days) it will reject. If you put 50 days supply, and the patient comes back at 25 days, then the next claim will reject (as a Refill too soon because you stated the bottle would last 50 days).
