Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
Busonid (budesonide 200mcg and 400mcg)
It´s a capsule with inhalatoin powder composed of budesonide 200mcg or 400mcg. The experimental drug will be dispensed in a cartridge containing 60 capsules of 200 mcg or 400 mcg and an inhaler. It should be stored at room temperature (between 15 and 30°C) and protected from moisture. Regarding the dosage, the 80 study participants will perform an inhalation 200mcg every 12 hours (400 mcg / day). During follow-up visits (V1 and V2) the attending physician will assess the need for increased PSI dose to 400 mcg every 12 hours (800mcg / day). Study participants should rinse the mouth with water and / or brush your teeth immediately after use of the drug. The duration of treatment may be 12 weeks.
