July 27, 2012 updated by: AstraZeneca

A Double-blind, Randomised, Cross-over, Multi-centre Study, to Evaluate Onset of Effect in the Morning in Patients With Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Treated With Symbicort®Turbuhaler® 320/9 μg, Compared With Seretide® Diskus® 50/500 μg, Both Given as One Inhalation Twice Daily for One Week Each.

This study is to assess the effects with two different inhaled respiratory medications with regards to improvement of lung function, symptoms and morning activities.
