dry powder inhalers (DPIs)

Dry powder inhalers (DPIs) are devices used to deliver medication directly to the lungs, typically for conditions like asthma or COPD. They work by releasing a fine, dry powder that the user inhales deeply through the device, allowing the medication to reach the airways efficiently. Unlike nebulizers or metered-dose inhalers, DPIs don’t require propellants and are portable and easy to use once properly learned. Proper inhalation technique is crucial to ensure the medication’s effectiveness, and they are often preferred for their convenience and quick action.
