• Subjects should use an inhaled corticosteroid that has been maintained at a stable dose for 4 weeks prior to Visit 1
• FEV1 before the bronchodilator of between 40 - 90% predicted in Visit 1. The predicted values of NHANES in will be used for subjects of 12 years of age and adjustments will be made to the predicted values in the case of African-American subjects [Hankinson , 1999].

• Neurological or psychiatric disorders or a history of drug or alcohol abuse that could interfere with the subject´s ability to meet the requirements stipulated by the protocol.
• Alcohol abuse is defined as the average weekly consumption of more than 21 units or the average daily consumption of more than 3 units (men) or the average weekly consumption of more than 14 units or the average daily consumption of more than 2 units (women). The amount of alcohol units in a beverage can be determined by multiplying the volume of the beverage (in milliliters) by its percentage ABV and dividing by 1000
