dry powder inhalers (DPI)
Dry powder inhalers (DPIs) are devices used to deliver medication directly to the lungs. They work by releasing a pre-measured dose of powdered medicine when the user inhales through the device. DPIs are breath-activated, meaning they don't require coordination between pressing a button and inhaling. They are portable, easy to use, and do not contain propellants like some inhalers. DPIs are commonly prescribed for conditions such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), providing targeted relief by delivering medication efficiently to the respiratory system.
