An applicator for applying a spreadable composition to the skin or other exterior region of a human or animal body, comprising receiving means for receiving and carrying a unit or measured dose of the composition and a grip for enabling a user to grip and manipulate the applicator, wherein the grip and receiving means are arranged such that a user gripping the applicator by the grip is protected from inadvertent contact with a composition, a unit or measured dose of which is carried by the receiving means.

Application device for topical administration of pharmaceutical compositions and products

Disclosed is a system for delivery of a drug comprising a multiple unit dosing device comprising a housing and an actuator, said device containing multiple doses of multiparticulates comprising drug particles, said device upon actuation delivering a unit dose of said multiparticulates, said drug particles having a mean diameter of greater than 10 &#x3bc;m to about 1 mm such that an effective dose of said drug cannot be delivered into the lower lung of a human patient. Also disclosed are novel methods, devices and dosage forms for delivering a drug.

A multiple dose delivery device for delivering a medicament into an oral cavity of a patient is provided. The device includes a sachet pack including a plurality of unit doses of a medicament enclosed between a first strip and a second strip. The device further includes a sachet advance mechanism and a mouthpiece. Upon actuation by a user, the sachet advance mechanism, which is engaged with the sachet pack, separates the first strip from the second strip to release one of the plurality of the unit doses from the sachet pack.
