摘要：
An inhaler (1') has a hollow inhaler body (2) for retaining an aerosol container with a dispensing valve at a valve end of the container. The inhaler (1') comprises a first open end (3) sized and arranged to receive the aerosol container with a dispensing valve and a second open end (4) through which a dose of medicament is dispensed as an aerosol. The second open end (4) is sized and arranged to be coupled to the mouth or nasal cavities of a patient.The inhaler (1') further comprises a nozzle block (5') with an upper portion and a lower portion positioned adjacent to one another.The nozzle block (5') extends along a longitudinal axis from a bottom portion (6) of the inhaler body (2) towards the first open end (3).The nozzle block (5') is configured such that a dose of a medicament is released upon depression of the dispensing valve (22) of the aerosol container (21) against the nozzle block (5').The nozzle block (5') has a fluid flow path (7) extending there through such that the dose of medicament being released from the valve (22) is passed to the nozzle block (5') and exits the nozzle block (5') as an aerosol in a direction towards the second open end (4) of the inhaler body (2).The nozzle block (5') is formed as a part separate from the inhaler body (2). The bottom portion (6) of the inhaler body (2) comprises a receiving portion (11') for receiving the nozzle block (5'). The nozzle block (5') is adapted to be inserted through the first open end (3) of the inhaler body (2) into the receiving portion (11') of the bottom portion (6). The nozzle block (5') has two supporting legs (27') for vertically supporting the nozzle block (5') in the receiving por- tion (11'). Each of the supporting legs (27') has a lower end (35) with an alignment plate (36) protruding transversely to the longitudinal axis (33) of the nozzle block (5') from the corresponding supporting leg (27') in an outward direction. The alignment plates (36) are configured to rest against cor- respondin
