Edit: Hi all, it seems like the general consensus is that this is a dangerous product. I really believed that I was making something helpful but that may not be the case. I have decided to take down the listing from Cults3D. Thank you for your feedback.
Also, I would be extremely concerned about germs and things getting into the layer cracks. FDM printing is okay for single-use, but they can’t be cleaned properly for prolonged use.
Somebody catching something because they took their medecine from an inhaler that’s been floating around in their purse/pocket/backpack… is going to prove problematic. I know that medical devices require strict testing in the US.
Still it’s a remarkably slick device. I’m just not sure FDM printing is the way to go here.
I agree. Admittedly I haven’t dealt with the legal side in years and never outside my own country. But definitely talk to a specialist lawyer or other expert about it. Because of the oral application it might not even be the lowest level of medical device anymore. And with that comes a multitude of regulations. From durability to material to production environment.
I like the idea and as someone who had to use a dispenser in my youth, I appreciate the smaller profile of it.
FWIW, resin may be better.
But I definite, OP should chat with somebody that knows more- I just know enough to say that much.
