Abstract: The invention relates to a powder inhaler with at least one specially sharpened needle, to ensure the precise piercing or cutting open of capsules and hence the optimum delivery of powdered medicament compositions, medicament formulations or medicament mixtures, as well as ensuring that little effort is needed to perforate or cut open the capsule.

Abstract: A film container includes a bottom film and a top film connected thereto for forming at least one accommodating chamber for a filling, in particular a pharmaceutical active substance formulation. A detachably fastened sliding element which covers the accommodating chamber is assigned to the accommodating chamber as a safeguard.

Abstract: The present invention relates to capsules for housing pharmaceutical preparations for powder inhalers with increased medicinal product safety and capsules for pharmaceutical preparations for powder inhalers with improved adaption to use in powder inhalers. The capsules consist of non-water-soluble, hydrophobic plastics, which themselves do not substantially influence the pharmaceutical quality of the contents, but improve the usability of the filled capsules in respect of their operation, the period of use and/or the geographical location of their use and are advantageous in various steps from manufacture to use.

Abstract: In the case of a packaging unit comprising a plastic bottle (2) with a flexible foil bag (3) arranged therein, wherein a hollow interspace (5) is formed at least in certain regions between the surface of the inner wall of the plastic bottle (2) and the outer surface of the foil bag (3), the foil bag (3) is designed such that it at least partially automatically elastically contracts and/or can be compressed at least in certain regions by a force effected by a means arranged in the interspace (5) and/or can be collapsed.

Abstract: A blister pack comprises a bottom film and a top film for forming a plurality of film containers (1) that can be separated from one another by perforations (10), each having one accommodating chamber (2) for a filling, particularly a pharmaceutical active substance formulation, the accommodating chambers (2) being arranged around the peripheral boundary of the blister pack (7). The centre of the blister pack (7) is formed by a detachable film section (4), after the removal of which an opening region (5) is available for opening the accommodating chamber (2).

Abstract: The invention relates to a film container of a blister that cannot be extruded, comprising a base film and a cover film for implementing a receiving chamber (4) for a filling material, in particular an active pharmaceutical ingredient formulation, wherein the receiving chamber (4) is connected to an opening area (6) for removing the filling material. The opening area (6) of the receiving chamber (4) is protected by means of at least one film section (7, 8) that can be separated at least in sections from the film container (1).

Abstract: A package in the form of a bottle (1 to 1??) comprises damping and/or cushioning means (5) that act on packaged goods placeable in the fill volume (3) thereof and that are disposed between the packaged goods and the wall of the bottle, which are adapted to substantially automatically align and/or unfold or compress in accordance with the degree of filling of the volume (3) with packaged goods and to shrink or expand and/or unfold in accordance with the degree of removal of the packaged goods at least until a certain proportion has been removed.

The centre of the blister pack (7) is formed by a detachable film section (4), after the removal of which an opening region (5) is available for opening the accommodating chamber (2).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for filling a capsule with a pharmaceutical active-substance formulation, wherein the capsule consists of two capsule parts (a capsule body and a capsule cap) and the two capsule parts, without being previously interlocked when empty, are only fitted together in a telescopic manner once one capsule part has been filled with a pharmaceutical active-substance formulation, as well as a device for this purpose.
