ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying the effectiveness and safety of a combination of two medications—Ibuprofen and Loratadine—compared to each medication taken alone for treating the common cold. The goal is to find out if the combination works better to relieve symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, sore throat, and headaches. The trial is currently looking for participants aged 65 to 74 who are experiencing cold symptoms that started within the last three days and score at least 6 points on a specific symptom scale.
To participate, individuals must agree to be part of the study and provide written consent. They should not have any severe respiratory illnesses or other medical conditions that could complicate the study. Participants will receive either the combination treatment, Ibuprofen alone, or Loratadine alone, and they will be monitored for any effects or benefits from the treatment. It’s important to note that pregnant or breastfeeding women, and those with certain health conditions, will not be eligible for this trial. If you or someone you know fits the criteria and is interested, this could be an opportunity to help researchers learn more about treating common cold symptoms.
