Abstract

A device for delivering medication to a user may include a circular or elliptical body that include a mouthpiece, a flexible strip of medication, a lever, and a mouthpiece cover, where the mouthpiece cover is rotatable about the body. The electronics module may include a communication circuit, a sensor system, and a switch. The lever may be configured to actuate the switch when the lever is moved from a closed position to an open position. The lever is configured to advance a dose of medication on the flexible strip when moved from the closed position to the open position. When actuated, the switch may be configured to switch the electronics module from an off state to an active state wen the lever is actuated for a first time by a user. Thereafter, the electronics module is configured to not return to the off state.
