RPC Formatec has launched a medical dose indicator system that enables users of all types of PMDIs (pressurised metered dose inhalers) to accurately and reliably monitor the number of doses taken from their inhalers.
The RPC Group company’s new patented dose indicator has been designed to fit all common types of valves including 3M, Bespak, V.A.R.I. and Valios, and is approved by the US FDA.
As well as being available for new inhalers, the dose indicator can be easily integrated into existing dosing aerosols with only “slight modification” of the mouthpiece.
“The robust and simple-to-use injection-moulded design provides a counter that indicates the amount of times the inhaler has been activated,” the company says.
“The system can be tailored to specific customer requirements for the number of actuations – between 40 and 225 individual doses.”
RPC Formatec has over 30 years experience in the development and manufacture of high quality inhalation systems to help treat patients suffering from asthma or COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease). Its range of solutions includes capsule-, reservoir- and blister- (single and reusable) based variants and a multi-dose nasal powder spray.
