About

For the prophylactic treatment of asthma, FP inhaled aerosol (Flixotide ®) administered via a pressurized metered-dose inhaler (pMDI) was approved in China in adults, adolescents older than 16 years of age and children aged 4 to 16 years. This post-marketing safety monitoring program will evaluate the safety profile of FP 50 micrograms (µg) inhaled via a pediatric spacer device with a face mask in Chinese subjects aged 1 to <4 years. The adverse drug reactions (ADRs) and predictors of these adverse reactions among subjects will be reported. This single arm observational study will include subjects prescribed with FP 50 µg inhaled via a pediatric spacer device with a face mask. The maximum duration of the study will be 12 weeks with 3 visits. Visit 1 (Day 1) will be on-site visit and will also mark the start of the observational program. The follow-up visits will be scheduled at Visit 2 (Week 4), and Visit 3 (Week 12) conducted on site or by telephone. A total of 150 asthmatic subjects who have been prescribed FP 50 µg treatment for appropriate medical use for the first time in China will be enrolled in the study. Flixotide is a registered trademark of GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) group of companies.
