Summary
This trial aims to see if using a specific inhaler, budesonide/albuterol, works better than a regular albuterol inhaler in treating severe asthma attacks in teenagers aged
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adolescents aged 12 to under 18 with asthma, who've had a severe asthma attack in the past year. They must be on stable asthma maintenance therapy for at least 3 months and demonstrate proper inhaler use without spacers. Participants need to perform reliable peak flow measurements and agree to specific contraception methods if applicable.
What is being tested?
The study aims to compare two inhalers: BDA MDI (a combination of budesonide and albuterol) versus AS MDI (albuterol alone), used as needed during severe asthma attacks. It will assess which treatment better prevents exacerbations in young people with a history of serious asthma flare-ups.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects may include throat irritation, headache, rapid heartbeat, nervousness from albuterol; and oral thrush, voice changes, cough or sore throat from budesonide when using the inhalers.
