A dose counter for a metered dose inhaler has an activation valve at a valve end of the metered dose inhaler. The dose counter includes a housing having a first end and an opposing second end. The first end receives a metered dose inhaler valve end, and the second end defines a cavity. An actuation detection assembly in the cavity includes an actuation detection element on the second end of the housing, and an activator element in the cavity of the housing. The activator element is configured to move between a first position in the cavity in which the activator element is spaced apart from the actuation detection element on the housing by a gap and a second position in which the activator element cooperates with the actuation detection element so that the actuation detection element generates an actuation signal.
