NEWS HIGHLIGHTS
Published Studies Related to Guaifenesin NR Liquid (Guaifenesin)
Guaifenesin has no effect on sputum volume or sputum properties in adolescents
and adults with acute respiratory tract infections. [2014] failed to find a consistent benefit... CONCLUSIONS: The recommended dose of GGE had no measurable effect on sputum
[A prospective multicenter randomized controlled clinical study on the efficacy and safety of Guaifenesin compound pseudoephedrine hydrochloride oral solution] [2010.03] CONCLUSION: Guaifenesin compound pseudoephedrine hydrochloride oral solution showed significant efficacy and safety in children for treatment of cough, expectoration, nasal congestion and runny nose caused by common cold or acute tracheobronchitis.

Inhibition of cough-reflex sensitivity by benzonatate and guaifenesin in acute viral cough. [2009.06] Acute cough due to viral upper respiratory tract infection (URI) is the most common form of cough and accounts for tremendous expenditure on prescription and non-prescription cough products worldwide. However, few agents have been shown in properly conducted clinical trials to be effective for cough due to URI...
Safety and efficacy of extended-release guaifenesin/pseudoephedrine hydrochloride for adjunctive symptom relief of acute respiratory infections. [2009.05] Acute bacterial respiratory infections (ABRIs) require treatment with antibiotics.
Clinical Trials Related to Guaifenesin NR Liquid (Guaifenesin)
Safety and Efficacy of Mucinex and IR Guaifenesin the Treatment of Symptoms of Acute Upper Respiratory Tract Infections [Completed]
The study is designed to meet regulatory requirement outside the US. The dosing regimen and
assessments timepoints were dictated by immediate release (IR) guaifenesin (GGE) and do not
match approved Mucinex labeling in the U. S. The purpose of this study is to determine
whether Mucinex is effective and non-inferior as compared to placebo and immediate release
guaifenesin in the treatment of symptoms of acute upper respiratory infections. This design
was required based on EU regulatory guidance.
Single Dose Trial of Extended Release Combination Tablet Codeine and Guaifenesin [Completed]
The objectives of this study are (a) to determine if drug levels from a single dose of an
extended-release Codeine/Guaifenesin tablet are similar to an immediate-release tablet given
every four hours containing lower doses considered safe for over-the-counter use; (b) to
evaluate if food affects the drug levels of this extended-release Codeine/Guaifenesin
tablet after a single administration; and (c) to assess the safety and tolerability of
the Codeine/Guaifenesin extended-release and immediate release tablet formulations.
Safety and Efficacy Study of Guaifenesin and Pseudoephedrine for Symptomatic Therapy to Treat Acute RTI [Completed]
The purpose of this study is to determine if treatment with Mucinex D lowers the use of
antibiotics in the treatment of upper respiratory infection when compared to placebo
Warming Sensation Intensity and Acceptability of the Flavour, Local Tolerability of Paracetamol 500 mg + Phenylephrine 10mg + Guaifenesin 200 mg Syrup in Patients Suffering a Upper Respiratory Tract Infection (URTI) [Completed]
This is an open label, in-use study to assess the warming sensation, acceptability and local
tolerability of paracetamol 500 mg + phenylephrine 10mg + Guaifenesin 200 mg syrup, given as
a single dose in subjects suffering from symptoms of an upper respiratory tract infection.
The purpose is to evaluate the acceptability concerning a warming sensation effect and its
potential benefit in the target population.
The primary objective is to assess the warming sensation caused by the excipient IFF flavor
316 282, in a syrup containing paracetamol 500 mg + phenylephrine 10mg + Guaifenesin 200 mg
per 30 ml syrup. The syrup contains (0. 15% w/v) warming flavor.
The Secondary Objectives are to assess subject acceptability of the syrup and the safety and
tolerability of the syrup. The study will be run in fifty-six (56) subjects suffering from
symptoms of an upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) for 7 days or less, e. g. nasal
congestion associated with colds and flu symptoms such as pain, headache and/or fever.
Subjects must have one or more symptoms per category:
1. mild to moderate body pain, headache, fever or sore throat
2. nasal congestion (blocked nose) with or without rhinorrhea (runny nose) or sneezing
3. productive cough Adolescents will be included in the study population
Comparison Between Dexchlorpheniramine and Dexchlorpheniramine/Pseudoephedrine/Guaifenesin in Respiratory Infections [Not yet recruiting]
Patients with allergic rhinitis frequently present exacerbation of the atopic symptoms
during viral infections of the upper respiratory tract. Also, allergic rhinitis makes the
mucosa more reactive to infectious agents and potentiates mucus production.
The combination of dexchlorpheniramine, pseudoephedrine and guaifenesin elicits
antihistaminic, decongestant and expectorant effects. The study hypothesizes is that this
product is superior to dexchlorpheniramine alone in the relief of allergic symptoms and in
promoting mucus elimination in atopic patients with viral infections of the upper
respiratory tract.
