    Abstract: An inhaler article includes a body (110) extending along a longitudinal axis from a mouthpiece (112) end to a distal end with an endpiece element at the distal end (114). A capsule cavity is defined within the body. An air inlet region is between the endpiece element (120) and the capsule cavity (116). A composite porous support element (140) defines a downstream end of the capsule cavity. The composite porous support element is formed of a first porous material concentrically disposed about a second porous material. The first porous material has a first resistance to draw and the second porous material having a second resistance to draw. The first resistance to draw is different than the second resistance to draw. A mouthpiece air channel (113) extends from the capsule cavity, through the composite porous element to the mouthpiece end.
