Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Airway response to inhaled allergen

    area under forced expiratory volume in one second versus time curve; 0-3hours (early response) and 3-7 hours (late response)

    at time of allergen inhalation challenge and for 7 hours after

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Airway response to inhaled methacholine

    day before allergen inhalation challenge and 8 hours after allergen inhalation challenge

Study Arms (2)

Ibuprofen

EXPERIMENTAL

400mg (2X200mg) ibuprofen single dose once

Drug: ibuprofen

Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

identical appearing lactose capsules single dose 2 capsules once

Drug: Placebo

Interventions

2x 200mg ibuprofen, single dose, blinded in 00 capsules

Also known as: Advil
Ibuprofen

lactose filled 00 capsules to match appearance of ibuprofen intervention

Placebo

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 70 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo

You may qualify if:

  • diagnosis of mild asthma, currently well controlled requiring only a bronchodilator (e.g. salbutamol) as needed and infrequently
  • has allergies that trigger asthma
  • responds to methacholine challenge at 16mg/ml or less
  • has FEV1 \> 69.5% predicted

You may not qualify if:

  • respiratory illness within 4 weeks
