Abstract

In one embodiment, a method for lobelia delivery is provided comprising: providing a lobelia solution suitable for vaporization in a compact handheld device; providing the compact handheld device; vaporizing the lobelia solution at a low temperature upon activation by a user such that an effective serving of lobelia is provided to the user. In various aspects of this embodiment the lobelia solution comprises propylene glycol, water, alcohol and glycerin, the step of vaporizing the lobelia solution comprises using a vaporizer to vaporize the lobelia solution, and the effective serving of lobelia is provided to the user in less than 20 activations, less than 15 activations, less than 10 activations, less than 5 activations, or between about 8-10 activations.

Claims (22)

1. A method for lobelia delivery comprising:

providing a lobelia solution suitable for vaporization in a compact handheld device;

providing the compact handheld device;

vaporizing the lobelia solution at a low temperature upon activation by a user such that an effective serving of lobelia is provided to the user, wherein the low temperature is from approximately 180 degrees C. to approximately 280 degrees C., wherein the lobelia solution further comprises water at a concentration of approximately 0.01% to approximately 20%, alcohol at a concentration of approximately 0.01% to approximately 20%, glycerin at approximately 1% to approximately 30%, and propylene glycol.

2. The method of claim 1 wherein the step of vaporizing the lobelia solution comprises using a low temperature vaporizer element to vaporize the lobelia solution at the low temperature.

3. The method of claim 2 wherein the effective serving of lobelia is greater than 0.5 mg.

4. The method of claim 2 wherein the effective serving of lobelia is from approximately 0.5 mg to approximately 100 mg.

5. The method of claim 2 wherein the effective serving of lobelia is from approximately 0.5 mg to approximately 50 mg.

6. The method of claim 2 wherein the effective serving of lobelia is from approximately 0.5 mg to approximately 20 mg.

7. The method of claim 2 wherein the effective serving of lobelia is from approximately 5 mg to approximately 10 mg.

8. The method of claim 1 wherein the lobelia solution comprises water at a concentration of approximately 2% to approximately 18%.

9. The method of claim 1 wherein the lobelia solution comprises water at a concentration of approximately 5% to approximately 15%.

10. The method of claim 1 wherein the lobelia solution comprises alcohol at a concentration of approximately 2% to approximately 18%.

11. The method of claim 1 wherein the lobelia solution comprises alcohol at a concentration of approximately 5% to approximately 15%.

12. The method of claim 1 wherein the lobelia solution comprises glycerin at a concentration of approximately 5% to approximately 20%.

13. The method of claim 1 wherein the lobelia solution comprises glycerin at a concentration of approximately 5% to approximately 10%.

14. The method of claim 1 wherein the lobelia solution comprises glycerin at a concentration of approximately 10% to approximately 15%.

15. The method of claim 1 wherein the low temperature ranges from approximately 180 degrees C. to approximately 250 degrees C.

16. The method of claim 1 wherein the low temperature ranges from approximately 180 degrees C. to approximately 225 degrees C.

17. The method of claim 1 wherein the low temperature ranges from approximately 180 degrees C. to approximately 220 degrees C.

18. The method of claim 1 wherein the lobelia solution is provided in a disposable cartridge to consistently deliver the effective serving of lobelia per activation.

19. The method of claim 1 wherein the lobelia solution is extracted from lobelia that is configured to maximize a surface area of the lobelia , wherein the configuration is selected from the group consisting of lobelia in a shape of a mesh screen, lobelia that is spirally wound, lobelia in pellet form, lobelia in powder form, and lobelia encapsulated in a filter-like material.
