Devices and methods are described for preparing, managing, and/or administering metered doses of substances for vaporized administration. In some embodiments, dose cartridges comprising at least one botanical substance include a heating element integrated into the cartridge in close contact with the botanical substance. In some embodiments, cartridge-mounted doses are stored in a magazine, optionally in carousel form, before use. Transport of a cartridge from a magazine to an electrically operated vaporizing chamber which activates the heating element is provided by a mechanical pickup means.

A vaporization device and its method of use, where the device can accommodate a plurality of formulations for dispensing by selecting the desired source. Such formulations can include different drug formulations for providing different effects on the user. Also, an indicator with specialized indicia can be provided to identify the source being dispensed.

The present disclosure relates generally to the field of nicotine delivery. The disclosure teaches a nicotine meta-salicylate. More specifically, the disclosure teaches a condensation nicotine aerosol where nicotine meta-salicylate is vaporized. This disclosure relates to aerosol nicotine delivery devices. The delivery devices can be activated by actuation mechanisms to vaporize thin films comprising a nicotine meta-salicylate. More particularly, this disclosure relates to thin films of nicotine salt with meta salicylic acid for the treatment of nicotine craving and for effecting smoking cessation.

The present invention provides a connector for push-connecting a cartridge containing vaporizable material, such as a 510-cartridge, to a power-supplying device. The connector includes a housing containing electrical contacts, a cartridge-receiving end for receiving a conductive end of the cartridge, and a flexible, preferably silicone, ring connected to the cartridge receiving end of the housing for retaining the conductive end of the cartridge inserted therethrough against the electrical contacts. The ring is preferably part of a silicon boot that houses the housing.

A personalized drug delivery apparatus comprising drug containing means; a spout configured to receive full lung exhalation; a mechanism configured to determine a personalized drug dosage according to the exhalation, the spout further configured to enable inhalation of the determined dosage.

The invention relates to a control device (10) for a medical aerosol delivery device (2), a medical aerosol delivery system, a method for controlling a medical aerosol delivery device (2), a computer program element for controlling such device or system, and a computer readable medium having stored such computer program element. The control device is configured to provide inhalation length data and to select an aerosol delivery mode from at least a first aerosol delivery mode or a different, second aerosol delivery mode based on the provided inhalation length data. The first aerosol delivery mode and the different, second aerosol delivery mode are one of a target inhalation mode, a tidal breathing mode, a continuous aerosol delivery mode and breath-actuated delivery mode. Optionally, the control device (10) comprises a provision unit (11) and a control unit (13). The provision unit (11) is configured to provide inhalation length data. The processing unit may be configured to select either a first aerosol delivery mode or a different, second aerosol delivery mode based on the provided inhalation length data. The medical aerosol delivery system comprises an aerosol delivery device (2) and such control device (10). The control device (10) is configured to control the aerosol delivery device (2). The aerosol delivery device (2) is configured to deliver aerosol to a user.

The invention relates a metering device for fluids from a containment volume. The metering device is a means to dispense metered volumes of fluids such as detergents, medicaments, lotions and the like. The invention further provides a container for fluid material to be dispensed in metered doses.

An example aerosol delivery device includes a mouthpiece having an airflow outlet, and an airflow passage extending between an airflow inlet and the airflow outlet. The example aerosol delivery device further includes a housing configured to receive a cartridge that includes an aerosolizable substance and a vapor element configured to heat the aerosolizable substance, and an internal power source configured to provide electrical power. The example aerosol delivery device further includes a controller coupled to the internal power source to receive a portion of the electrical power and configured to, when the cartridge is installed at the housing, cause the vapor element of the cartridge to heat the aerosolizable substance to release an aerosol into the airflow passage during an inhalation through the airflow outlet, and a connector configured to receive power from an external source to recharge the internal power source.

Disclosed is a computer controlled dosage system, for dosage adjustment for a mobile, hand held, inhaler for delivering a dosage of a medicine, is provided. The system comprises at least one measuring device for measuring at least one parameter; and a handheld mobile computer separate from the inhaler, the computer being configured to communicate with the at least one measuring device and with a remote memory for sending and receiving information to and from patient medical records of the remote memory for storage in a memory of the computer, and the computer being configured to receive a manual input for storage in the memory of the computer. The computer is configured to create a data set for setting a plurality of levels of different dosages of medicine based on the medicine used by the inhaler, the information from the patient's medical records of the remote memory, and the manual input; and the computer is further configured to store the data set in the memory of the computer. The computer is further configured to generate an indication indicating a dosage adjustment for the inhaler, based on the at least one parameter and on one of the plurality of levels of dosage of the data set, the indication indicating one of the plurality of levels of dosage of the data set as the dosage adjustment for the inhaler. A dosage regime generated by the computer controlled dosage system is also disclosed.

Provided is a multi-users cannabis dispenser comprising: a vessel comprising at least two compartments, each compartment configured to contain at least one cannabis composition comprising at least one active component; at least one dispensing unit associated with said at least one compartment, said dispensing unit configured to controllably release from said compartments a metered dose of said composition contained therein; a control unit comprising a data input unit configured to receive data relating to a specific user, data indicating a metered dose of one or more said cannabis compositions to be administered to said specific user and/or to receive data relating to a specific cannabis composition, data indicating a metered dose of said specific composition to be administered to said specific user and configured to control the dispensing unit to release at least one said metered dose. Further provided are methods of use of the multi-users cannabis dispenser.
