Aptar Pharma, a company based outside of Chicago, is releasing a new portable and easy to use inhaler for upper respiratory conditions. The PureHale device comes ready to use, and the tank can take saline or other solutions designed to clean, soothe, and moisturize the upper respiratory tract. The inhaler creates an even and mist from the fluid in the tank, helping patients to inhale the medication.
There are no batteries or medication tanks to change, since the device uses a mix of compressed air and pure nitrogen to power the drug delivery. It really comes ready to go and it’s disposed of once empty.
