[Clinico-functional data concerning chronic asthmatic bronchitis patients treated wih guacetisal].

Abstract

Guacetisal was administered to a group of patients suffering from chronic asthmatic bronchitis. The drug in question was shown to possess a good fluidifying, expectorant and indirect anti-cough action, by means of an initial increase of the bronchial secretions and a subsequent progressive decrease of secretions towards the end of the treatment. The analysis of the respiratory parameters examined showed no modifications of statistical significance.
