Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine, in children aged 1 to 6 years with recurrent
asthma induced by upper respiratory tract infections (URTI), whether the administration of
high doses of inhaled fluticasone started at the onset of symptoms of a cold will result in a
reduced severity and shorter duration of asthma exacerbations and will not be associated with
reduced growth velocity, osteopenia, and adrenal suppression.
