Abstract
The present invention provides a nebulizing device with a housing that includes a mouthpiece module, an intermediate module, and a base module. An aerosol generator is in communication with a fluid. A barrier is disposed between the fluid and a drug solution provided within the housing. A signal transmitter and a signal receiver are carried by the housing. The signal is either initiated or terminated when one of the modules is separated or misaligned from the other modules. The device further includes a variable volume resilient structure disposed in communication with the fluid to provide volumetric relief in the event that the fluid expands.
