Study Summary

This trial will check if two different types of salbutamol inhalers are safe and well-tolerated for people 12 years and older with asthma.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people aged 12 and older with stable asthma, as defined by the Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA), who have not had a severe exacerbation in the last 6 months. Participants must have controlled asthma with an ACQ score <1.5 and be able to withhold short-acting bronchodilators for at least 6 hours before testing.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares safety and tolerability of salbutamol delivered via two different propellants in inhalers: HFA-152a versus HFA-134a. It's designed to see if there's any difference between these two types of metered dose inhalers over a three-month treatment period.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects from using salbutamol may include tremors, headache, fast heart rate, muscle cramps, dry mouth or throat irritation. These are common when taking medications through an inhaler but can vary among individuals.
