Summary: | The invention provides exemplary apparatus for aerosolizing a pharmaceutical formulation contained within a receptacle. A metered amount of a pressurized gas can be provided, with the pressurized gas previously being in equilibrium with a liquid. The metered gas is released to create a high pressure gas stream. The high pressure gas stream is flowed through an aerosolization mechanism to extract the pharmaceutical formulation from the receptacle and to disperse the pharmaceutical formulation within the gas stream to form an aerosol. |
