Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: This study will evaluate overall asthma control, as assessed by the Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ), in asthma subjects who are switched from Viani ® Evohaler 25/125 mcg to salmeterol/fluticasone propionate pMDI (Cipla Ltd) 25/125 mcg (taken as 2 actuations of 25/125 mcg/actuation) compared with overall asthma control in asthma subjects who are not switched from Viani ® Evohaler to salmeterol/fluticasone propionate pMDI. ;Secondary Objective: Not applicable;Primary end point(s): Primary Endpoint ? The difference in mean ACQ between Serroflo ® pMDI and Viani ® Evohaler after 4 weeks of treatment;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: after 4 weeks of treatment

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Mean change from baseline to week 4 in pre dose FEV 1;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: from baseline to week 4
