| Primary | Average Illness Duration (the Interval Between the Start of the Trial Treatment and the Time When Recovery/Improvement - Based on Patient Diary Data) | based on patient diary data | From the time of randomization until the time of recovery/improvement, assessed up to 14 days | |
| Primary | Severity of the Disease Within 5 Days Was Assessed Using the "Area Under the Curve" for the Total Symptom Score (TSS) at 1-5 Days (According to the Diary of the Patient). | The TSS was based on the severity of each of acute upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) symptom. The TSS includes 11 symptoms: Body temperature / fever, Non-specific URTI symptoms (Decreased activity / Malaise, Impaired appetite / refusal of feeding, Painful appearance, Sleep disturbance) and Nose /Throat symptoms (Runny nose, Nasal congestion, Sneezing, Hoarseness, Sore throat, Cough). The severity of each URTI symptom was scored on a symptom severity scale (0 = no symptoms; 1 = mild symptoms; 2 = moderate symptoms; 3 = severe symptoms). Minimum score=0; maximum score=33. The severity of URTI symptoms was recorded by one of the patient's parents/adopter on a diary card twice a day (morning and evening) on Days 1-5. |
