Abstract:
Cough is considered to be one of the leading clinical symptoms associated with the pathological changes in the respiratory system. Notwithstanding a great variety of therapeutic pharmaceutical products possessed of the antitussive action, physicians tend the give preference to the preparations producing the combined effect. The present article reports the results of the clinical study designed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the application of rengalin exhibiting the combined antitussive, anti-inflammatory, and broncholytic action in the patients presenting with the postnasal drip syndrome. The comparison of the therapeutic effects of rengalin with those of other therapeutic modalities frequently employed for the management of postnasal drip give evidence of the high efficiency of this product for the optimization of the treatment of this condition and the associated chronic cough.
