Abstract: The present invention provides an actuator (10) for a nasal inhaler (5). The actuator comprises an elongate body (15) comprising a canister opening (11), a nose piece (30) adapted for nasal delivery of a medicament, and fixing means for fixing the nose piece to the elongate body (15). The nose piece is fixable to the body at an acute angle to the elongate body. A first portion of the nose piece defines an outlet (25) for discharging a medicament from the actuator. The nose piece is adapted and the elongate body is adapted so that when the nose piece is fixed to the elongate body, the nose piece and elongate body cooperate to define a fluid communication pathway from the canister opening to the outlet. The present invention is also directed to an inhaler comprising an actuator as discussed, and a canister.

Abstract: An actuator for an inhaler, in particular a nasal actuator, is disclosed, the actuator comprising a body, a stem post and fixing means for fixing the stem post in the body. The body comprises a delivery passage for delivery of a medicament and a canister opening for insertion of a canister having a metering valve with a valve stem. The stem post comprises a stem socket for receiving the valve stem of a canister and comprises an orifice for discharging a medicament to the delivery passage. The stem post and body are adapted so they cooperate to define a transition chamber when the stem post is fixed in the body. Also disclosed is a method of forming an component for an actuator for an inhaler, and a method of assembling an actuator for an inhaler by inserting the stem post through the canister opening and into the body thereby.
