Rotahaler Device
is designed for the inhalation of dry powder medications to manage
lung-related conditions. Its primary purpose is to streamline the
administration of inhaled medication, ensuring optimal dosage accuracy
and user comfort. Compatible with Cipla rotacaps, this inhalation device
simplifies the process by requiring the insertion of a Rotacap, which
contains the drug powder, into the capsule chamber. Inhalation through
the mouthpiece activates the device, automatically releasing the
medication. Notably, it delivers consistent and accurate dosages as each
capsule is pre-metered and discarded after use. Furthermore, its
portability makes it a convenient choice for individuals with chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) as it can be easily carried and
used wherever needed.
Uses:Simplifies the inhalation of dry powder medications through a Rotacap, ensuring precise dosing and ease of use.
