The invention relates to a disposable breath-actuated inhaler comprising a housing forming an air flow path open at both ends, wherein one end forms an air inlet and one end forms an air outlet. The housing includes a compartment for storing a pharmaceutical powder to be inhaled which is located close to the air inlet and covered by a thin foil which seals the compartment in an airtight way. The foil can be removed from the compartment from outside the housing. Additionally, the housing has a constriction adjacent the powder compartment such that a turbulent air stream will be obtained at the constriction upon inhalation which will lift the powder out from the compartment and mix the powder into the air stream. |
