Zusammenfassung:An apparatus and associated method for delivering a dose of an aerosol drug to the lungs of a large animal, such as a horse. A distal end (26) of an endotracheal-like nasal tube (16) is inserted through a nostril of the large animal into its nasal-pharyngeal cavity (32). Then, as air flows inwardly through the lumen (28) of the nasal tube (16) toward the lungs of the large animal, an atomized aerosol drug dose is discharged into the lumen of the nasal tube. The inwardly-flowing air carries the atomized drug dose with it for delivery to the lungs of the large animal (14).
