- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the systemic exposure of BDP, its metabolite beclomethasone 17-monopropionate (B17MP) and formoterol after inhalation of BDP/Formoterol 100/6 µg pMDI combination (CHF1535) using the standard actuator and charcoal block technique or using a Spacer (AeroChamber Plus, Trudell) in comparison with inhalation using the standard actuator
