A process is disclosed for dosing a preferably powdery inhalation composition. The composition is brought from a reservoir into an inhalation stream generated by the inhaling person and channeled in such a way that the inhalation stream swirls at the same time, dissolving and distributing the composition in the stream. The inhaler for applying the process has a dosing element (25) movably mounted within limits in an outlet (24) of the reservoir (21) in such a way that a lateral dosing recess (26) is located, in one of its extreme positions, within the reservoir (21) and in its other extreme position within the inhalation channel (11). The dosing element is actuated by the inhaling person by means of a spring element (30) or closing cap for the mouth (12) of the inhalation channel (11). Each displacement of the dosing recess (26) from the reservoir (21) into the inhalation channel (11) releases a dose of composition for inhalation. The inhaler has a vibrating mechanism that keeps the powdery composition loose and flowable. In addition, the inhaler may have a locking mechanism (3) that stops dosing when inhalation is not sufficiently strong and/or a dose counting mechanism. |
