Abstract
Cough is one of the most common medical situations that leads to
seek medical attention. The present study was carried out
to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability in the treatment of cough in
adults and children of a sugar-free syrup containing glycerol
and extracts from roots of Althaea officinalis and from leaves of
Plantago lanceolata (FTP 65 Cough syrup sugar free: Manufacturer
Labomar SPA). One hundred and twenty subjects (60 children and 60
adults) were recruited. Participants received for 7 days one
of the following dosage schedules:
a) Adult: “ Cough Syrup REF FTP 65” in single-dose containers of 10 ml, to be taken daily in 3 administrations
b) Children: “ Cough Syrup REF FTP 65” with a daily dosage of 10 ml/day
for 2–6-year-old children, and of 20 ml/day, for
7–12-year-old children. The survey included three visits: a first visit
(V0) of enrollment, a second visit (V1) after 3 days from the V0
and a third visit (V2) carried out after 7 days of therapy. The results
of this study confirm the evidence that the medical device Cough
Syrup REF FTP 65 may represent a valid choice as a treatment for
coughing in adults and children
