Sponsor: Western Sky Medical Research
Collaborator: AstraZeneca
Information provided by: Western Sky Medical Research
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00915538
  Purpose

This study will compare the amount of bronchial tube relaxation from the formoterol medicine contained in the symbicort pMeterd Dose Inhaler( a combination of budesonide ,a steroid, and formoterol, a drug which relaxes the bronchial smooth muscle. The comparison will be using the pMDI in the usual fashion to the pMDIs and a spacer which allows more time for breathing in the medication. Breathing tests will be measured over a 12 hour period for the comparison.

Arms Assigned Interventions
Conventional First: Experimental
This group will use pMDI in usual fashion first and cross over to pMDI and valved holding chamber
Drug: pMD Symbicort 160/4.5
The subjects will receive Symbicort pMDI 160/4.5 pMDI used in conventional fashion, and have pulmonary function measured over 12 hours. Secondly on another day, they will receive pMDI using a valved holding chamber
Spacer First: Experimental
This arm will receive pMDI and Valved holding chamber on fist day. On anther day will receive pMDI in usual fashion. Pulmonary functions wil be measured over 12 hours
Drug: Symbicort
Symbicort 160/4.5 will be administered first first through a valved holding chamber, and on another day in the conventional fashion. Pulmonary functions will be measured ove r12 hours
