Eligibility Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:
* Generally healthy male, and premenarchal female, children ages 4 - 11 years upon Screening.
* With documented asthma, requiring inhaled epinephrine or β2-agonist treatment, with or without concurrent anti-inflammatory therapies including orally inhaled corticosteroids, for at least 6-months prior to Screening.
* Being capable of performing spirometry for FEV1 measurements.
* Satisfying criteria of asthma stability, defined as no significant changes in asthma therapy (with the exception of switching LABA to SABA, adjustment of ICor SABA, etc, per investigator discretion) and no asthma-related hospitalization or emergency room visits, within 4 weeks prior to Screening.
* Can tolerate withholding treatment with inhaled bronchodilators and other allowed medications for the minimum washout periods indicated in Appendix II prior to the Screening Baseline FEV1 testing.
* Demonstrating a Mean Screening Baseline FEV1 (MSBF) that is 50.0% - 90% of Polgar predicted normal value.
* Demonstrating an Airway Reversibility, i.e., FEV1 values ≥12% increase based upon volume compared with MSBF, within 30 min after 2 inhalations (440 mcg, epinephrine base) of previously marketed Epinephrine CFC-MDI, labeled "For Investigational Use Only". There will be up to 5 reversibility time points, each with up to 5 maneuvers that can be conducted anytime within 30 min post-dose.
* Demonstrating satisfactory techniques in the use of a metered-dose inhaler (MDI).
* Has been properly consented to participate in this study.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Any current or past medical conditions that, per investigator discretion, might significantly affect pharmacodynamic responses to the study drugs, such as significant systemic or respiratory diseases (e.g., cystic fibrosis, bronchiectasis, active tuberculosis, emphysema, nonreversible pulmonary diseases), other than asthma.
* Concurrent clinically significant cardiovascular, hematological, renal, neurologic, hepatic, endocrine, psychiatric, or malignant diseases.
* Known intolerance or hypersensitivity to any component of the study drugs (i.e., Epinephrine, HFA-134a, CFC-12, CFC-114, polysorbate-80, thymol, ethanol, ascorbic acid, nitric acid, and hydrochloric acid), as well as the rescue Albuterol HFA inhalers (i.e., Albuterol, HFA-134a, ethanol, and oleic acid).
* Recent infection of the upper respiratory tract (within 2 weeks), or lower respiratory tract (within 4 weeks), before screening.
* Use of prohibited medications per Appendix II.
* Having been on other investigational drug/device studies in the last 30 days prior to screening.
