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

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.
