    Abstract: A powder inhaler includes a casing having a mouthpiece, an inhalation channel, a container for a powdered medicament, and a metering device with a shuttle having a dosing recess. The shuttle is movable between a filling position, in which the dosing recess is in alignment with an opening of the container to be filled with a dose of the powdered medicament, and an inhalation position, in which the dosing recess is in alignment with the inhalation channel, for enabling inhalation of the dose of the powdered medicament contained in the dosing recess through the mouthpiece. A sealing device is operationally active at a coupling zone of the shuttle with the container when the shuttle is in the filling position, the coupling zone circumscribing the dosing recess and the opening.
