Brief summary
The primary objective of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of budesonide HFA MDI 200 mcg 2 puffs BID versus budesonide DPI (Turbuhaler) 100 mcg 4 puffs BID in Chinese mild to moderate Asthma patients.
Detailed description
A total of 270 Chinese mild to moderate Asthma patients will be enrolled and 230 will be completed in this multi-center, randomized, single blind, parallel efficacy and safety comparison study of budesonide HFA MDI 200 mcg 2 puffs BID versus budesonide DPI (Turbuhaler) 100 mcg 4 puffs BID.
Interventions
Participants will inhaled 2 puffs of budesonide 200 mcg HFA MDI bid (am 08:00 and pm 16:00) for 4 weeks, if necessary rescue Ventolin (Salbutamol Sulfate) 100 mcg 2 puffs could be used with maximum daily dose of 8 puffs.
Participants will inhaled 4 puffs of budesonide 100 mcg DPI bid (am 08:00 and pm 16:00) for 4 weeks, if necessary rescue Ventolin (Salbutamol Sulfate) 100 mcg 2 puffs could be used with maximum daily dose of 8 puffs.
