Influence Of Different Airflow Resistances On Drug Effect Of 50μg Salmeterol And 6 μg Formoterol

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Asthma
Registration Number
NCT00327353
Lead Sponsor
GlaxoSmithKline
Brief Summary

Effect of inhaled drugs administered as dry powder is not only dependent on drug efficacy but also on technical properties of the inhalers. Different inhalers have different internal resistances and therefore it is expected that patients with limited airflow may have different exposure rates of drugs delivered from different devices
