Post-Infectious Cough
Conditions
Brief summary
This study is an exploratory clinical trial. It is intended to investigate the efficacy of mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosome nebulization in the treatment of postinfectious cough through a randomized controlled clinical study, with a view to providing better treatment options for patients with postinfectious cough, improving their quality of life, and providing reference data for the subsequent multi-center clinical trials.
Interventions
Mesenchymal stem cell derived exosome nebulization (FITCELL 5ml nebulization QD) was combined with compound methoxyphenamine capsule ( Asmei 2 capsules oral TID) for cough treatment.
Normal saline nebulization (0.9% sodium chloride 5ml nebulization QD) was combined with the compound methoxyphenamine capsule (Asmei 2 capsules oral TID) for cough treatment.

| The change value of cough symptom score | Day 7 and day 14 of treatment initiation | The secondary endpoints of the study include the statistical differences in the absolute values of changes in the Cough Severity Score (CSS) from baseline to Day 7 and Day 14 of treatment between the two groups of patients. |
| The change value of visual analog scale | Day 7 and day 14 of treatment initiation | The secondary endpoints of the study include the statistical differences in the absolute values of changes in the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score from baseline to Day 7 and Day 14 of treatment between the two groups of patients. |
| The change value of Athens Insomnia Scale | Day 7 and day 14 of treatment initiation | The secondary endpoints of the study include the statistical differences in the absolute values of changes in the Airway Inflammation Score (AIS) from baseline to Day 7 and Day 14 of treatment between the two groups of patients. |
