Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: - Female and male aged 18 and 65 years. - At least 6 months of documented clinical diagnosis of asthma as defined by GINA 2012 or American Thoracic Society (Expert Panel Report 3 2007) prior to visit 1 - Stable asthmatics on SABA alone, on low dose ICS (200-400 µg budesonide corresponding) or on fixed combination of low ICS/LABA - At the enrolment visit 1a, the visit baseline FEV1 must be =80 % of that predicted normal (NHANES III). For LABA patients the visit baseline FEV1 must be =80 % of that predicted normal (NHANES III) at both visit 1a and visit 1b. If not, the patient will be withdrawn from the study - At the enrolment visits 1a or 1b (LABA patients only) and at the end of run-in period, visit 2, eligible patients should demonstrate an airway responsiveness to methacholine PC20 =65 years) no F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range

| Main Objective: The primary objective is to demonstrate therapeutic equivalence between Bricanyl Turbuhaler M3 and Bricanyl Turbuhaler M2 using bronchoprotective effect as outcome measure. Outcome measurements: PC20 (Methacholine provocative concentration causing a 20% drop in FEV1);Secondary Objective: Secondary objective-Safety objective is to compare safety of Bricanyl Turbuhaler M2 and Bricanyl Turbuhaler M3.
