Asthma Treatment Study: Pulmicort vs Singulair

This clinical trial compared the safety and effectiveness of Pulmicort Respules (budesonide inhalation suspension given once daily) versus Singulair (montelukast sodium given once daily) in children ages 2 to 8 years old with asthma requiring controller therapy. The primary outcome was time to first asthma medication as either step-up Pulmicort Respules or oral steroids. Secondary outcomes included adverse events, time to additional asthma medications, and time to acute severe exacerbations requiring oral steroids.
