    Abstract: An inhaler includes a first body member and a second body member fit closely together to form an inhaler body, and an outlet. The first body member has a medicament chamber containing a unit dose of powdered medicament. A seal such as a foil strip seals the medicament chamber and extends outwardly of the inhaler body. In use, one end of the seal can be grasped by a user and withdrawn, fully or partially, from the inhaler body, to release the powdered medicament from the medicament chamber. The second body member includes a medicament collection well in which the medicament is collected upon its release from the medicament chamber. The medicament collection well forms part of an airway connecting into the outlet.
