The purpose of the study is to determine if inhaled iloprost given four times daily can
improve symptoms and lung function in adults with mild asthma.
Animal studies have suggested that prostacyclin may downregulate allergic inflammation, thus
providing the scientific basis for trials of inhaled prostacyclin agonists such as iloprost
for the treatment of asthma. This study will examine the tolerability of four times daily
iloprost on asthma symptoms and pulmonary function over a two week treatment period.
