POWDER INHALER ASSEMBLY

A powder inhaler assembly includes a powder inhaler including a metering device having a dosing recess and movable, with respect to a container and to an inhalation channel, between an idle state, in which the dosing recess is in communication with an opening of the container so as to be filled with a dose of the powdered medicament, and a triggered state, in which the dosing recess is in communication with the inhalation channel for enabling inhalation of a dose of the powdered medicament contained in the dosing recess through a mouthpiece. An electronic module is attachable to the powder inhaler and includes a non-contact sensor positioned and configured to sense position(s) of at least part of the metering device to detect at least when the metering device is in the triggered state.

Systems, devices, and methods for administering cannabinoid mixtures

A nebulizer device for administering aerosol cannabinoid mixtures to a user includes a mouthpiece, a first reservoir, a second reservoir, and a nebulizer device. The nebulizer module is configured to receive a first dosage of the first liquid from the first reservoir and a second dosage of a second liquid from the second reservoir. The nebulizer module is also configured to transform the first liquid into an inhalant and the second liquid into an aerosol that are provided to the user through the mouthpiece. The device further includes a dosage module configured to independently control the delivery of the first liquid and the second liquid to the nebulizer module to set a ratio between the first dosage of the first liquid and the second dosage of the second liquid. The dosage module thereby controls a composition of an aerosol cannabinoid mixture administered to the user.
