Handheld pulmonary drug delivery device could beat indoor smoking bans and assist quitters

July 3, 2007 Now here’s an interesting product which might find all manner of niche applications. Next Safety has created a handheld pulmonary drug delivery device that delivers extremely high arterial levels of nicotine – with effects felt less than ten seconds after inhalation – and provides higher psychoactive effects than cigarettes or any other tobacco product on the market. It is expected that the device, which is roughly the size of a pack of cigarettes, will substantially increase success rates for those who wish to quit smoking due to its ability to accurately duplicate the delivery of nicotine from tobacco smoke. Additionally, by delivering a high percentage of nicotine to the bloodstream, the use of the device is expected to cost less than 30 percent of the equivalent cost of cigarettes. We guess the same would be true for any other substances people smoked too. Hmmmm Could this be used indoors to beat the smoking bans implemented this week in the U.K. and Australia?
