This invention relates to devices, uses and methods for the delivery of a medicament in aerosol form. The proposed arrangement permits simple, cost-effective delivery (e.g. for mass immunisation programmes) which avoids contamination risk and/or disposal difficulties. Medicament in aerosol form is supplied either to the interior of an edible bag, or to the interior of a funnel which is lined with a liner, which bag or funnel is placed over a patient's nose and mouth to enable inhalation of the medicament. The liner may be edible, e.g. made of rice paper or food-based polymer. A nebuliser is used to generate the aerosol using a flow of compressed air. Both the bag and the funnel have a suitably sized opening for fitting over the patient's nose and mouth. |
