An anaesthetic vaporizer for supplying an anaesthetic to a patient and having an inlet for receiving carrier gas and an outlet for delivering carrier gas laden with the anaesthetic to the patient. The vaporizer includes a pump having an expandable body, preferably of a metal, and which expands to draw in the liquid anaesthetic from a reservoir through a valving mechanism and which collapses to meter a precise amount of that liquid anaesthetic into a chamber where it is vaporized for introduction into the carrier gas as it passes between the inlet and the outlet.
