12-year-old brother said he saw his 9-month-old sister put a capsule of Spiriva s/l "spin inhaler pellet" in her mouth.

The device used to dispense Spiriva is a Handi-haler. The capsules or pellets come in a blister pack. I've never heard of a spin inhaler before.
My asthmatic niece just corrected me - they are referred to as spin-inhalers!

Lots of stuff on this page. I'm not sure about the "spin" but something else might come to while you are reading up on this type of inhaler.
