Brief Summary  

This is a prospective, randomized, open-label, parallel-group study to assess the efficacy and safety of Aeroguard 4S in paediatric asthma.

The study will be conducted in approximately 64 subjects, between 6-15 years of age (extremes included), with well controlled mild to moderate asthma as per GINA, 2016.

In order to assess the efficacy of Aeroguard 4S in reducing asthma symptoms, subjects in both the test and control arms will be monitored for asthma symptom control, lung function tests (LFTs), asthma exacerbations, and use of reliever and controller asthma medications.

Safety of the Aeroguard 4S will also be evaluated. Any AE experienced by the subjects during the 90-day study period will be recorded, assessed, reported, and followed-up.
