    Abstract: Modifications of an inhaler and method of use thereof are described. In some embodiments, an inhaler may include one or more systems and/or methods that function to inhibit a child from accessing medicant from an inhaler. A system may function to inhibit a child from accessing an opening of an inhaler from which medicants are dispensed. In some embodiments, a system may inhibit a child from removing a cap for an inhaler. A system may function to inhibit a child from actuating an activation mechanism for an inhaler. A system may function to inhibit a user and/or a child from accidentally actuating an activation mechanism for an inhaler multiple times possibly resulting in an overdose. A system may function to inhibit an activation mechanism for an inhaler from actuating after the activation mechanism has been actuated a predetermined number of times. An inhaler may include a security fitting which functions to permanently plug an inhaler once a prescribed user is finished with the inhaler.
