Abstract: A stationary inhalation apparatus for the individual controlled inhalation of therapeutic aerosols comprises a drug-release means 3, at least one drug reservoir 2, a reader 4 for reading out a patient's individual parameters and/or the aerosol parameters stored in a memory means and a control unit connected to the drug-release means 3 and the reader 4 for releasing the drug as a function of the read-out parameters. This stationary inhalation apparatus 1 permits the administration of different drugs to a multitude of patients.
Abstract: An inhalation device has a container 2 for an aerosol volume inhaled via a channel 15 and a mouthpiece 14, the container being located within a housing 12. The aerosol, in particular vitamin A, is introduced from a cartridge 17 into the interior of the container 2 via a nebulizer 18. The breath flow in the inhalation device is controlled via a control means 5 that keeps the inhalation flow essentially constant during the entire inhalation period.
