A Multi-Dose DPI for Improved Patient Compliance
Innovation in Dry Powder Inhalation
Dry powder inhalers are activated by breathing and we developed a high performance, multi-dose dry powder inhaler (DPI) device by focusing on simplicity of use for improved patient compliance.
Patient Focused Features
Our proprietary Prohaler® multi-dose inhaler has several features that can improve patient compliance and ease of use. The device is portable and compact and no coordination is needed. With powder formulation efficiency measures and a visual dose counter with audible click sound indicator, patients can be confident of successful dose delivery.
Clinic and Patient Ready
The Prohaler® DPI is a proven solution for multi-dose dry powder inhalation. This technology has molding and assembly capabilities in place that are capable of supporting your needs so that Aptar Pharma can help to accelerate and de-risk your Dry Powder Inhaler (DPI) programs.
Integrated Support & Development Services
Our extensive inhalation development support services include DPI device selection, formulation development, analytical method development and validation as well as comprehensive regulatory support.
Innovation in Dry Powder Inhalation
We understand the challenges that asthma and COPD patients face in managing their conditions and maintaining compliance with their treatment regimens. When our dedicated teams of inhalation R&D scientists worked with international thought leaders and patients, their goal was to design and deliver a simple, reliable and intuitive multi-dose dry powder inhaler (DPI) system that would enhance patient compliance and adherence.
We made the device lightweight and portable so that it’s really easy to use. Dose indication and acknowledgement are an integrated part of the design to provide patients with confidence to self-manage their treatment. We designed Prohaler® using the QbD (Quality by Design) approach and this allowed us to ensure that the product meets the desired performance standards, is safe and reliable, and is easy to use by patients. Additionally, the use of QbD enabled us to minimize the risk of product failure and maximize the likelihood of success.
With only three simple steps to operate: Open, Breathe-in, Close (OBIC) practically all patients can use Prohaler®.
Patient focused features
Prohaler® is lightweight and portable and intuitive to use so it can always stay with the patient. It carries up to 30 individual powder doses in separate sealed laminated blisters for optimal moisture protection.
With an integrated visual dose indicator, the user knows if there are doses remaining in the device. Prohaler® also incorporates an audible click noise when the dry powder dose is administered so the user can easily confirm dosing success.
With its unique breath-triggered blister opening mechanism, Prohaler® reduces dose wastage, which can be a common problem with other conventional DPIs.
