The AQLQ(s) contains 32 questions, each question has a 7 point scale from 1 (highest intensity) till 7 (no symptoms). Total score was defined as the sum of all items divided by the number of items.

Total Asthma Control Questionnaire (ACQ) Score4 weeks

Control of asthma as assessed by the ACQ at the end of each 4-week treatment period.The ACQ contains 7 questions, each question has a 7 point scale from 0 (no symptoms) till 6 (highest intensity). Total score was defined as the sum of all items divided by the number of items.

Potassium 1 Hour Pre-dose4 weeks

Effect on potassium evaluated 1 hour pre-dose. Analysis is based on the log of the potassium values. For the geometric means, the results were back-transformed to the original scale.

Potassium 1 Hour Post-dose4 weeks

Effect on potassium evaluated 1 hour post-dose. Analysis is based on the log of the potassium values. For the geometric means, the results were back-transformed to the original scale.

Potassium 3 Hours Post-dose4 weeks

Effect on potassium evaluated 3 hours post-dose. Analysis is based on the log of the potassium values. For the geometric means, the results were back-transformed to the original scale.
