  • Publication number: 20260000850
    Abstract: Dry powder inhalers deliver medicament from a blister pack having a plurality of spaced-apart blister pockets containing doses of medicament. A housing accommodates unused and used portions of the blister pack together with a dispensing mechanism for selectively opening the blister pockets. A manifold component, through which air is drawn in use, has primary air inlet opening receives first external air and fluidly connected by primary air delivery conduit formed in the manifold component to air outlet opening providing external air from the primary air inlet opening into an opened blister pocket; medicament inlet opening receives air-entrained medicament from the opened blister pocket and is fluidly connected by medicament delivery conduit formed in the manifold component to medicament outlet opening that delivers air-entrained medicament from the opened blister pocket to the user.

  • Publication number: 20250001105
    Abstract: Provided is a blister pack for a dry powder inhaler, which dry powder inhaler is configured to deliver a first powder medicament and a second powder medicament different from the first powder medicament. The first and second powder medicaments are contained within blister pockets defined in a strip. A series of blister pockets is defined in the strip, which series extends linearly along the length of the strip. The first and second powder medicaments are contained in blister pockets, e.g. respective blister pockets, of the series. Alternatively or additionally, each of the blister pockets is elongated such as to have a largest dimension parallel with the length of the strip. These measures, either individually or in combination, enable minimizing of the width of the strip in spite of the strip accommodating both the first and second powder medicaments.

  • Publication number: 20230398315
    Abstract: A dry powder inhaler for delivering medicament from at least one medicament carrier having a plurality of spaced-apart medicament doses. The inhaler includes a housing having regions for accommodating unused and used portions of the medicament carrier, a mouthpiece component extending from the housing and through which a user is able to inhale, a dispensing mechanism arranged in the housing for moving a medicament dose of the medicament carrier to the dispensing position, and a mouthpiece cover being rotatably connected to the housing for sequential movement about a rotation axis from a first position in which the mouthpiece component is completely covered to a second position in which the mouthpiece component is completely covered, and from the second position to a third position in which the mouthpiece component is completely uncovered, the second position being between the first and third positions.
