Abstract

A comparative investigation was conducted to study the therapeutic effect of using two powder inhalers (the new-generation device - an easyhaler as well as an aerolyser inhaler) in daily practice for treating patients with moderate asthma. It showed the pharmacological equivalence, efficiency, and safety of applying a combination of the easyhalers budesonide and formoterol, as well as the simplicity and convenience to use the inhalers of this type.
