Summary:

       The study aimed to monitor the effectiveness and safety of the treatment with ciclesonide, administered once a day in a 160 μg dose, over a 3-month period, to a group of 100 patients diagnosed with mild persistent bronchial asthma with deterioration of problems after exercise. The results of the study prove significant positive effects of the preparation used. A significant improvement of FEV1 and PEF values was observed, as well as a statistically significant remission of both day and nocturnal symptoms of the disease, a significantly lower consumption of shortacting β2-sympathomimetics, and an improvement of all evaluated data relating to the quality of life of the asthmatic patients. No adverse effects were registered.

        Key words: ciclesonide – inhaled corticosteroids – bronchial asthma
