Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The Rate of Number of Subjects Whose PC20 is Less Than 8 mg/mLVisit 1 (Day 1)

The methacholine challenge test is for assessment of bronchial sensitivity, it is assessed by FEV1 (Forced Expiratory Volume in one second) with spirometer.

For measurement of FEV1, a patient is inhaled saline as baseline and each dose of methacholine which be gradually diluted, inhalations are discontinued with a drop in FEV1 of 20% or more.

The concentration of methacholine causing 20% fall in FEV1 is PC20.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The Rate of Subjects Whose FEV1 Falls More Than 20% From Baseline Before the Highest Concentration InhalationVisit 1 (Day 1)
The Summary Statistics of PC20Visit 1 (Day 1)

PC20 : the concentration of methacholine causing 20% fall in FEV1.
