<p>The invention relates to an inhaler for multiple use for a medicament in powdered form to be used in conjunction with an elongate carrier (2) carrying discrete doses of said medicament. Said elongate carrier comprises a carrier body (3) being provided with equidistant depressions or cavities (5) containing said doses and a peelable cover strip (4) covering and enclosing said discrete doses. The inhaler comprises a housing (1), an air inlet (6), a powder dispensing station (7) and an air outlet (8), said inlet (6), said outlet (8) and said dispensing station (7) being interconnected by an air conduit (37) for inhaling. The inhaler further comprises displacing means (15) for moving said elongate carrier (2) so as to successively locate a discrete dose in said dispensing station (7). Said displacing means (15) is arranged to act on the peelable strip (4), in this way both moving the elongate carrier (2) into and exposing each discrete dose in the dispensing station (7), a separate indexing means (20) being provided sensing or measuring and, as necessary, blocking the movement of the carrier (2) in order to ensure that each cavity (5) containing a dose is positioned and held correctly in the dispensing station (7) upon actuation of said displacing means (15).</p> |
