Exercise Induced Bronchospasm in Children

Completed · Phase 4

Conditions studied: Exercise Induced Bronchospasm

In brief

The purpose of the study is to test how well 2 different medications stop asthma symptoms caused by exercising. The two medications that will be tested are "pretreatment with albuterol" and montelukast (Singulair®). Although both medications are used for treating asthma, we don't know which medicine is better at stopping asthma symptoms caused by exercising.
