BNO 1030 Extract (Imupret) in the Treatment of Mild Forms of COVID-19

Covid19Nasopharyngitis5 more

According to WHO (World Health Organisation) data, about 40% of patients with COVID-19 (Corona Virus SARS-CoV-2) have a mild course of the disease, namely, cases of mild course are of great danger from the point of view of the spread of infection, since the main source of infection is a sick person. The mild course of COVID-19 is characterized by a number of nonspecific symptoms: fever, cough, sore throat, nasal congestion, malaise, headache, muscle pain. Evidence has emerged of loss of smell as a symptom of COVID-19 infection. Anosmia/hyposmia in the absence of other respiratory diseases, such as allergic rhinitis, acute rhinosinusitis, or chronic rhinosinusitis, are considered as a clinical marker of COVID-19 infection in a pandemic.For people with a mild course of the disease, WHO recommends providing home care, and the recommendations come down to observing a sanitary-hygienic regimen and taking antipyretics if necessary. Unfortunately, the treatment of patients with a mild course is still outside the interest of medical science. In its updated strategy to curb the spread of COVID-19, WHO states the need for diagnosis, effective isolation, and treatment of patients with mild to moderate severity of the clinical course of patients.Currently, there is experience with the use of the drug Imupret for the treatment of nasopharyngitis associated with other viral pathogens, in particular Epstein-Barr virus. It was shown that the use of a Phyto preparation helps to accelerate the regression of symptoms characteristic of nasopharyngitis, as well as accelerate the elimination of the virus from the body. Obviously, the proven activity of Imupret is important in relation to the activation of factors of nonspecific immunity, which is important in confronting viruses, including COVID-19. Another obvious factor that is important for the treatment of viral diseases is the synergism of the active substances in oak bark and walnut leaves with respect to inhibition of reverse transcriptase of a wide range of respiratory viruses, as well as the anti-inflammatory effect of the drug. Confirmation of the therapeutic effect of Imupret for the treatment of nasopharyngitis associated with COVID-19 would allow the development of new therapeutic tools to combat this infection and put into practice updated WHO emphasis on national health systems: it is important to identify, treat and isolate all cases of COVID-19, including cases with mild or moderate severity of the disease.

Trial To Assess Efficacy and Safety of PediaFlu® in Children With Acute Tonsillopharyngitis / Rhinopharyngitis...

TonsillopharyngitisRhinopharyngitis

Sore throat or acute tonsillopharyngitis, often referred to as angina catarrhalis in Central and Eastern Europe, affects mainly children, adolescents and young adults and represents one of the most common reasons to consult a family physician. While most patients complaining of sore throats have an infection, it has been estimated that fewer than 20% present with a clear indication for antibiotic therapy, i.e., are positive for hemolytic streptococcus. Acute tonsillopharyngitis (ATP) is a highly prevalent, seasonal infective disorder characterized by an inflammation of the pharynx and the palatine tonsils, which occurs in all age groups and accounts for about 5% of all visits in pediatric care. Common symptoms of ATP include sore throat, dysphagia, red pharynx, enlarged tonsils sometimes covered with exudate, fever with sudden onset, malaise, gastrointestinal complaints, halitosis, rhinorrhea and cough. Children with non-streptococcal tonsillopharyngitis are often over-treated with antibiotics. The scientific literature currently available shows that the extract of Pelargonium sidoides may be effective in the treatment of disorders affecting the respiratory tract. Evidence shows that zinc is beneficial for the common cold in healthy children and adults living in high-income countries and it may inhibit replication of the virus. In addition, zinc (lozenges or syrup) reduces the average duration of the common cold in healthy people assuming zinc within 24 hours of onset of symptoms Propolis has been widely investigated for its antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory properties and is administered as an add-on therapy during watchful waiting for better control of symptoms in non-streptococcal pharyngitis. The above-mentioned considerations, have suggested Pediatrica Srl to develop a food supplement specific for pediatric age for the well-being of the airways (PediaFlù®). This product is actually on the market as adjuvant in seasonal diseases. The present clinical investigation is planned to verify and confirm these encouraging results in a setting of standard clinical practice. This is a randomized, open, controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of PediaFlù® (dietary supplement) along with standard of care in children with acute tonsillopharyngitis / rhinopharyngitis versus standard of care only. The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the tested dietary supplement administered along with standard care vs standard care alone in children affected by acute tonsillopharyngitis (ATP). The secondary objectives of the study are the assessment of the use of rescue medicine (Ibuprofen or high dose of Paracetamol) and the evaluation of the overall improvement symptoms.
