5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Effect of inhaled drugs administered as dry powder is not only dependent on drug efficacy but also on technical properties of the inhalers. Different inhalers have different internal resistances and therefore it is expected that patients with limited airflow may have different exposure rates of drugs delivered from different devices
