This is a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 4-way cross-over study. At each study visit a standardised treadmill test will be performed to provoke EIA. Before and after the challenge test pulmonary function variables (e.g. forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1)) will be measured in order to assess the protective effect of the study medication.
