FEV1 greater than or equal to 70% predicted (ECCS, 1993)
Subjects must show an increase in FEV1 greater than or equal to 12% (and an absolute change \>200mL) within 30 minutes following inhalation of 4 puffs of albuterol/salbutamol or 1 nebulized treatment of 2.5mg or have historical, documented evidence of reversibility, within 12 months prior to screening

On the morning of Day 0, subjects will be eligible for randomisation into the study if all of the following criteria are met:

Subjects had asthma symptoms on less than or 5 out of the last 7 consecutive days of the run-in period
FEV1 greater than or equal to 70% predicted (ECCS, 1993).
FEV1 must be within ± 15% of the FEV1 value at beginning of screening.
Compliance with completion of the diary card.
