The performance of medical inhalers for conditions such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is crucial. Proper drug delivery can mean the difference between controlling symptoms and experiencing a potentially dangerous, life-threatening flare-up. For many patients, an inhaler can provide rapid relief during breathing emergencies or prevent asthma attacks through regular maintenance dosing. However, some treatments may require a nebulizer to accommodate various medication doses and patient abilities.
In either situation, patients want a well-functioning device that is also comfortable and easy to use. With technologies that can support a range of performance needs as well as provide color coding for brand identification, Avient can work with you to enhance the safety and effectiveness of your patient inhalation devices.
