Active clinical trials for "Common Cold"

The aim of the study is to evaluate the safety of the intake of EPs® 7630 during a long-term (4 months) medication. The protective effects of EPs®7630 and its effects during a cold episode will also be studied.

The study is designed to assess the effect of ingestion of a probiotic on innate and adaptive host responses to rhinovirus infection.

Viral upper respiratory tract infections (URTI), one of the commonest infection faced by humans, have a significant impact on individuals, families, health service and economy. Though rhinoviruses are called the "common cold virus", numerous viruses can cause URTI. Hence virus specific remedy for URTI is impractical. There are currently no evidence-based interventions that reduce the severity, symptom duration or viral shedding. Preliminary evidence suggests that hypertonic saline nasal irrigation and gargling (HSNIG) may reduce the duration of symptoms. With this pilot randomised controlled trial (RCT), the investigators aim to assess the feasibility of undertaking a definitive RCT of HSNIG in adults with URTI. This pilot focuses on recruitment rate, willingness to be randomised, acceptability, compliance and likely effect size of the intervention. This pilot RCT compares HSNIG vs. usual care in 60 adults. Serial self-collected mid-turbinate swabs will help assess change in viral shedding. Symptomatic relief is measured by a validated symptom score. A questionnaire based participant feedback will help assess intervention and trial procedures. This mixed-methods pilot trial will help inform plans for a definitive RCT of this low-cost intervention that has the potential of substantial health and societal benefits.

Efficacy and Safety of Regan Tangjiang for treating the common cold with wind-heat syndrome: A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Parallel-Group, Placebo and Active-Controlled Phase 2b Study

The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of an anti-cold preparation compounded by acetaminophen, chlorpheniramine and phenylephrine for the treatment of cold and flu symptoms in healthy individuals in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Arbidol (Umifenovir) is effective in the treatment and Prophylaxis of Influenza and Common Cold

The purpose of this trial is to determine if patients with NARES treated with montelukast (Singulair) will have improved nasal symptom scores and reduced nasal eosinophils.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the non-inferiority of Coristina® d in the symptomatic treatment of the common cold compared to Resfenol® comparator.

This protocol is designed with the aim of exploring the efficacy of Susu on shortening duration and reducing severity of cough, and observe the safety used in children.

Spring catarrh is a prevalent type of conjunctival allergic disorder in temperate countries. Topical steroids are the cornerstone management of spring catarrh beside other anti allergic drugs. However, prolonged use of topical steroids especqially in resistant spring catarrh carries risk of ocular side effects as 2nd glaucoma and cataract. We will investigate the safety and efficacy of topical immuonosuppressant in the management of resistant spring catarrh as an alternative to steroid therapy.
