- Mechanism: The device is designed to hold a capsule of powdered medication, which is then pierced by a built-in mechanism (often a green piercing button) to allow the user to inhale the powder.
- Design: It features a compact, lightweight, and ergonomic design for easy handling and portability.
- Function: It ensures that a precise and consistent dose of medication reaches deep into the lungs, which minimizes wastage and reduces the systemic side effects often associated with oral medications.
- Maintenance: The device is designed to be easy to clean, typically requiring the mouthpiece and capsule chamber to be wiped with a dry cloth or rinsed with warm water periodically (as per manufacturer guidelines).
