Abstract

A mouthpiece assembly for an inhalation device including a replaceable substrate component and a replaceable substrate component therefor. The mouthpiece assembly includes a mouthpiece which is essentially a hollow tube within which fluid flow can occur along a substantially longitudinal axis thereof. Within the mouthpiece, a cavity region is formed which is adapted to receive and locate the substantially planar elongated substrate component, such that it interacts with the fluid flow when occurring. The substrate component includes a substrate which can be excited sufficiently to cause aerosolization, and the substrate is fixedly mounted within the substrate component in an orientation and location whereby a channel formation or a conduit of the substrate component at least partially coincides with the cavity region, and thus the surface of the substrate in that cavity region is exposed to, and may be entrained within, whatever fluid may be flowing in that channel or conduit.
