A Randomized, Parallel-Group, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Single-Dose, Pilot Study To Evaluate Efficacy Of Dextromethorphan Hydrobromide On Acute Cough In A Pediatric Population

15 mg dextromethorphan hydrobromide will be better than placebo with respect to reducing the
number of coughs over 6 hours and reducing the subjective severity of cough over 6 hours.

In light of protocol changes required due to methodological and operational issues, including
background noise in cough recordings which could impact data interpretation, the study has
been terminated.
