Then he or she will be taking one single lozenge under supervision of the investigating physician and acute efficacy/safety ratings recorded before intake and repeatedly every 15 minutes for 90 minutes after intake of first lozenge. He or she will be supplied with the remaining 19 lozenges in a bottle and provided with patient diaries for home recording of efficacy/safety. After four days (max 5 days) or until complete resolution of symptoms the patients were obliged to return to the study centre for final visit 2. Daily ratings of efficacy/safety was done by the patient once in the morning and once in the evening. Daily dosage was 5 lozenges per day every 3rd hour during daytime. At final visit 2, patients will be evaluated physically by the physician at the study centre and again assessed for safety/efficacy parameters. At last, patients returned their patient diaries and remaining study medication before compensation is handed out and patients finally excluded from the study.
