Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

1. Healthy volunteers of both genders, aged ≥18 and ≤60 years.

2. Subjects with Body Mass Index (ΒΜΙ) ≥18.5 and <30.0 kg/m2.

3. Healthy volunteers are declared healthy based on medical history, physical examination, ECG, pulmonary function test (a forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) >=80% of the predicted normal value), and clinical laboratory values within the laboratory stated normal range; if not within this range, they must be without any clinical significance according to the Investigator.

4. Females who participate in the study are either unable to gestate [i.e. post-menopausal (absence of menses for 12 months prior to drug administration), hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, tubal ligation at least 6 months prior to drug administration] or at reproductive age; Females of reproductive age if sexually active, must be practicing an effective method of birth control within 14 days prior to drug administration and throughout the study.

Reliable contraception methods are considered the following:

combined (estrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation: oral, intravaginal or transdermal progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation oral, implanable or injectable intrauterine device (IUD) intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS) bilateral tubal occlusion vasectomised partner sexual abstinence

5. Subjects that are non-smokers.

6. Subjects that, in the opinion of the principal investigator/medical officer, are able to communicate and comply with the study procedures and protocol restrictions as evidenced by the Informed Consent Form (ICF) duly read, signed and dated by the subject prior to study initiation.

7. Subjects able to use the inhalers according to given instructions, as judged by the Investigator or study nurse.

4. Clinically significant history or presence of chronic bronchitis, emphysema,asthma or any other lung disease.

5. History or presence of pulmonary tuberculosis.

6. Viral or bacterial, upper or lower respiratory tract infection or sinus or middle ear infection within 4 weeks prior to the screening visit.

8. History of significant alcohol or drug abuse within one year prior to the screening visit.

9. Regular use of alcohol within six months prior to screening visit (more than 14 alcohol units per week) [1Unit =150 ml of wine, 360 ml of beer, or 45 ml of 40% alcohol].

10. Inability to abstain from alcohol for the duration of study period.

11. Presence of disease markers for Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C or HIV at screening.

12. Positive results for drugs of abuse (barbiturates, marijuana, opioids, benzodiazepines and methadone) in saliva before each administration.

13. Positive alcohol breath test before each administration.

14. Use of soft drugs (such as marijuana) within three months prior to screening or hard drugs such as crack, cocaine or heroin within one year prior to screening visit

15. Intake of any drugs known to induce or inhibit hepatic drug metabolism (examples of inducers are barbiturates, carbamazepine, phenytoin, glucocorticoids, rifampin/rifabutin; examples of inhibitors are, erythromycin, ketoconazole, indinavir, cobicistat-containing products) within one month prior to administration of the study medication. Under these circumstances, subject inclusion will be judged by the principal investigator.

16. History of peptic ulcer, other gastrointestinal disorders (e.g. chronic diarrhoea, irritable bowel syndrome) or unresolved gastrointestinal symptoms (e.g. diarrhea, vomiting) or significant hepatic, renal or other condition that is known to interfere with the absorption, distribution, metabolism or excretion of the drug.
