Abstract
The invention provides methods, devices and compositions for use in inhalation therapy of neonates, infants or children younger than 12 years, e.g. from 1 to 8 years, suffering from a disease, optionally a pulmonary disease, such as asthma, by which high amounts of inhaled drugs are directed to the small airways of the peripheral lungs of neonates, infants and children using slow, controlled flow rates and pre-set inhalation volumes. A novel inhalation device tailored for use in neonates, infants and children and adapted to provide said slow, controlled flow rates with a simplified jet nebuliser set-up is disclosed, together with kits comprising the device.
