Arranged to dispense a dosage unit from a sealed compartment of a blister packet, wherein the device comprises a blister packet-supporting member 7 which comprises an aperture (8, figure 1b) configured to allow the passage of the dispensed dosage unit, a pivotable lever 14 comprising an upper surface configured for a user to apply a force to the lever by pressing the upper surface using any of their elbow, lower arm, wrist, hand, palm or fingers, and a compartment-contacting member 12 having a concave surface (13, figure 2a) arranged to contact the compartment. The compartment-contacting member 12 is moveable between a non-dispensing position and a dispensing position when a force is applied by the user, wherein the pivotable lever 14 transmits sufficient force via the compartment contacting member 12 onto the compartment to enable the dosage unit to be dispensed through the aperture 8 without being substantially damaged. A collection chamber 3 may be present below the aperture 8 to receive the dispensed dosage unit. The blister supporting member 7 may include a plurality of apertures 8 and be in the form of a disk, rotation of which positions a selected aperture 8 adjacent the compartment contacting member 12. |
