Cough
Conditions
Brief summary
Primary objective: To assess the efficacy of Levopront® in comparison with Libexin® based on daytime cough resolution rate by Day 8. The daytime cough symptoms resolution corresponds to 0 or 1 points on the Six-point daytime and nighttime cough assessment scale. Secondary objectives: Treatment effect assessment in terms of the following efficacy and safety parameters: * To assess the efficacy of Levopront® in comparison with Libexin® based on nighttime cough resolution rate by Day 8. * Daytime and nighttime cough symptoms resolution according to Six-point daytime and nighttime cough assessment scale by Day 4. * Change in severity and frequency of daytime and nighttime cough according to Six-point daytime and nighttime cough assessment scale on Day 4 and Day 8 from baseline on Day 1. * Cough intensity change according to the visual-analogue scale on Day 4 and Day 8 from baseline on Day 1. * Change of FEV1 on Day 8 from baseline values on Day 1. * Rate of Adverse events (AE) and Serious Adverse Events (SAE) of the various severity according to subjective complaints, laboratory test results, physical examination, vital signs and spirometry

Daytime cough (\>08:00h up to 22:00 h) was evaluated on a 6-point scale (Six-point daytime and nighttime cough assessment scale) where 0 = no cough during the day; and 5 = distressing cough most of the day. The daytime cough symptoms resolution corresponds to 0 or 1 points on the 6-point scale. The lower the score the better the outcome. The rate of patients who responded to treatment (cough absents, when score is 0 or 1 at six-point cough scale vs. cough presents, when score is ≥ 2 at six-point cough score) by Day 8 in the study treatment group and in the control group with a non-inferiority margin of δ = 20% is reported.
