Inhaler
Explanation

An inhaler is a device that contains and delivers the medicine that you might need if you have asthma or suffer from allergic reactions, like a food allergy. Sometimes, people call inhalers 'puffers'. The medicine comes as a spray, and you breathe it out of the inhaler and into your mouth.
