Relenza inhalation powder comes packed in blisters on circular foil disks that are used in a type of inhalation device called a diskhaler. The diskhaler pierces the blister when it is used and the powder is then inhaled through the mouthpiece. This deposits the medicine in the throat, airways and lungs, where it can attack the virus.
