Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of the study was to assess the efficacy and safety of AP203 preparation (RESCOVIN®) in a group of patients with increased incidence to viral and/or bacterial upper respiratory tract infections.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Randomized, double-blind, cross over study conducted under medical supervision on 1) group of 30 patients receiving AP203 mixture in capsule form and 2) group of 30 receiving placebo. After a washout period a group receiving placebo receiver AP203 mixture in syrup form.

The study group was adult patients with an increased incidence of upper respiratory tract infection. During the study, the effect of a mixture of AP203 extracts (RESCOVIN®) on markers of inflammation and oxidative stress and the effect on the incidence of upper respiratory tract infections was assessed.
