Evaluation of Fluticasone Propionate and Fluticasone Propionate/Salmeterol Combination on Exercise in Pediatric and Adolescent Patients with Asthma

摘要

Objective:This study was designed to demonstrate that four weeks of fluticasone propionate (FP) 100 micrograms (mcg) combined with salmeterol 50 mcg twice daily (BID) via DISKUS? resulted in protection against bronchospasm induced by activity, as measured by standardized exercise challenge testing in pediatric and adolescent subjects who required regular use of inhaled corticosteroids for the treatment of persistent asthma.
