- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Percentage Change From Baseline (for Each Treatment Cycle) in Exhaled Nitric Oxide (eNO) Baseline to Day 7 of each treatment cycle (total duration about 8 - 10 weeks) Percentage change in eNO was reported following treatment with inhaled Advair in subjects with chronic but stable asthma as defined in Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) guidelines. eNO was calculated 3 times every day in a treatment cycle for 7 days. The maximum value of all 3 collected value were collected for each seven days of the individual treatment cycle.
