ABSTRACT:
A removable single-user tongue shield that is releasably attachable to the dispensing opening of a metered dose inhaler. The tongue protector is shaped to conform to the upper surface of the tongue to cover the taste sensor areas, and to minimize contact of the medication spray with the tongue's surface. In this manner the user is protected from objectionable medication taste while the delivery of the medication into the trachea is unaffected by the protector.
