Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Patients suffering from other organic causes of cough (e.g. respiratory tract infections, gastroesophageal reflux disease, heart failure, bronchitis associated with any other disorder but sarcoidosis, thoracic tumors, exposure to inhalable irritants, laryngitis etc) 2. Patients treated with ACE-inhibitors or a history of ACE-inhibitor treatment within the last six weeks (ACE-inhibitors are also not allowed to start during the study) 3. Corticosteroids doses > 15 mg prednisolone equivalent per day 4. Immunosuppressive treatment (except for corticosteroids = 15 mg prednisolone equivalent per day) within 3 months prior randomisation or indications to start or intensify immunosuppressive therapy during the study 5. Patients suffering from other chronic or acute severe diseases besides sarcoidosis manifestations that might impair safe participation in the trial according to the treating physician, e.g.: - Chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 4 and 5 - Liver cirrhosis Child-Pugh score B and C - Intended surgery of heart, lung, liver or abdominal disease during the trial period - Active malignancies requiring chemo- and / or radiotherapy - Chronic bowel diseases not sufficiently controlled 6. Conditions or medications supposed to influence the primary or secondary outcomes according to the local investigator’s appraisal (e.g. newly diagnosed obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome, newly or recently exacerbated psychiatric disease, modification of psychotic disease) 7. Known HIV infection, infectious hepatitis (type A, B or C) or another currently uncontrolled infection 8. Known hypersensitivity to the active substance or any of the excipients 9. Participation in any other interventional clinical trial during this study or during the last 30 days prior to informed consent; simultaneous participation in registry and diagnostic trials is allowed 10. Previous participation in this trial 11. Known persistent abuse of medication, drugs or alcohol 12. Relationship of dependence/employment with the sponsor or the investigator 13.
