Summary

Salbutamol use is increased in areas with high levels of ozone pollution and the potential consequences of this are not well known. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of salbutamol on lung function and inflammation in people with asthma and/or EIB exercising in ozone air pollution. To examine this, we are planning a randomized cross over trial where people with asthma and/or EIB complete sub maximal exercise in four conditions on four separate days. The four condition are: ozone + salbutamol, filtered air + salbutamol, ozone + placebo medication, and filtered air + placebo medication.
