Eligibility Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:

* Age ≥ 18 and ≤ 65 year of age Diagnosis of asthma (ATS definition, either allergic or non-allergic) for ≥ 6 months
* Asthma treated for at least 3 months with inhaled (ICS) and oral corticosteroids (OCS). Exact baseline level will be measured during the screening period by subject diary entries
* FEV1 ≥ 40% or ≤ 79% predicted at the Screening or Baseline Visit
* Documented increase of FEV1 within 15-30 minutes after the use of inhaled Salbutamol at the Screening Visit or within 2 years prior to Screening
* Mandatory usage of long-acting β-agonists
* A negative pregnancy test must be available for any women of childbearing potential at screening and, in addition, a negative urine pregnancy test must be present at randomization (prior to randomization to one of the treatment groups!)
* Women of childbearing potential must agree to use a reliable method of contraception from the screening until 4 weeks after study completion or after study drug discontinuation in case study drug treatment is stopped prematurely. - In this study, hormone-based contraceptives alone are not considered as reliable method
Exclusion Criteria:

* Emergency room visit for treatment of asthma exacerbation within 4 weeks of Screening
* Hospitalization for asthma within 3 months of Screening
* Use of anti-IgE, methotrexate, oral gold, Dapsone, or i.v. gamma globulin within 3 months of Screening
* Treatment with other investigational asthma treatment within 30 days prior to Screening
* Evidence of chronic lung diseases other than asthma, including but not limited to: cystic fibrosis, allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA), COPD, chronic bronchitis and emphysema
* History of medication noncompliance

* Oral corticosteroid average daily dose exceeding a maximum amount
* Currently smoking or history of smoking ≥ 10 pack years
* Taking oral or i.v. corticosteroids for any disease indication other than asthma
* Abnormal lab values for chemistry tests at Screening that may indicate impaired ability to metabolize and/or excrete Budesonide (AST, ALT \> 3 times upper limit of normal range, serum creatinine \> 1.5 times upper limit of normal range)
