That it passed the phase II trial is new information. Phase III now starts.

Great article. I'll certainly be following this trial. And might just take a few doses of cough mixture from now on.

The information in that article is incorrect. While it has passed the end goal of the phase 2 study, phase 3 has not yet been approved. They say phase 3 is called PD-frontline. It is not. This is a different program run by the same guys who run thr trial. I don't think the next trial is fully funded either but they have raised 500k. From what I've read the next trial will likely be a phase 2b to confirm the right dosage. I dont mean to be a downer but that article is poorly researched.

Interesting, hope is on the horizon. Let's hope the cough syrup will work wonders as expected. The trial should be accelerated,we can't wait.

Wouldn’t this be a lovely thing if it works. I love cough medicine! Unfortunately this one isn’t approved in Australia for humans although it can be used by vets!

I’ll try to get some on line and try it - can’t hurt to clear out the sinuses anyway.
