Abstract: A support (40) contains a plurality of separate doses (46) of deliverable substances. The support is arranged to be operatively coupled to a long-life dispensing device. The support is intended to be either coupled to or inserted within the dispensing device, such that a relative movement of the support and at least one part of the dispenser body that is caused by an actuating system allows selectively delivering at least one substance dose. The support integrates reference means (49a), (49b) that are configured to provide, due to said relative movement, information on at least one of: doses of the substance provided within the support, a condition and/or a position of the support within the dispenser.
