The invention relates to a powder inhaler and to a powder inhaler set that contains the powder inhaler. The powder inhaler comprises two half-shells (3, 4), which are connected to each other by means of at least one film hinge and are formed as a single piece. In a joined arrangement, the two half-shells (3, 4) enclose an air inlet region, a powder deposition region and powder release region, and an outlet region, through which regions a fluid path extends, wherein at least one of the half-shells (3, 4) has at least one air inlet opening (8) in the air inlet region. Furthermore, one of the half-shells (3, 4) has at least one powder-accommodating recess (9) in the powder deposition region and powder release region, while the outlet region has at least one deagglomeration structure (17, 17′) and an outlet for aerosol, which outlet is formed by the half-shells (3, 4).
