In recent years, drugs used to treat various respiratory diseases are delivered to the lungs at a measured rate with an auxiliary inhalation device. Compliance with inhalation treatment is a critical determinant for the success of asthma and COPD treatment. The delivery of these drugs to the lungs in a measured and correct manner is very important for successfully implementing the treatment and control of attacks. Accordingly, the present invention is related to an inhalation device that effectively reaches the lungs, reduces the frequency of patients experiencing symptoms and makes fewer hospital visits, increases the patient's quality of life, provides patient satisfaction, prevents excessive use of drug doses, and thus reduces costs.
We congratulate our faculty members and project partners who achieved significant success.
