    Arms of the Study

    Arm 1

    Arm 2

    Arm Type

    Experimental

    Active Comparator

    Arm Label

    Montelukast

    Inhaled Corticosteroids (ICS)

    Arm Description

    Participants were treated for 12 months after randomization: Participants 2 to 5 years of age took one 4 mg chewable tablet and 6 to 14 years of age took one 5 mg chewable tablet daily in the evening. If participants had exacerbated from mild to moderate within 12 weeks, inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) was added to Montelukast and ICS, respectively and those participants were excluded in the efficacy evaluation at 12 weeks.

    Participants were treated for 12 months after randomization: Each participant's physician selected the ICS agent, dose, and regimen. If participants had exacerbated from mild to moderate within 12 weeks, ICS was added to Montelukast and ICS, respectively and those participants were excluded in the efficacy evaluation at 12 weeks.

    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Change From Baseline for Daytime Asthma Symptom Score
    The score is an ordinal scale from 0 (no symptoms) to 5 (most symptoms). The change was calculated as the score at 12 weeks minus the score at baseline. Thus, a negative value for change from baseline indicates a favorable outcome.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    Change From Baseline for Daily Allergic Rhinitis Symptom Score
    The score is an ordinal scale from 0 (no symptoms) to 3 (most symptoms). The change was calculated as the score at 12 weeks minus the score at baseline. Thus, a negative value for change from baseline indicates a favorable outcome.
