Carbocisteine lysine salt in the treatment of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with frequent exacerbations
Abstract
The article presents the results of a randomized, open, comparative study of the effect of carbocisteine lysine salt in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with frequent exacerbations. The results demonstrate that carbocisteine lysine salt facilitates sputum properties (decreased purulence and improved expectoration), reduces the need for bronchodilators, increases exercise tolerance, and reduces frequency, severity and duration of exacerbations.
