Herbal asthma combo aims to stop chronic cough
NCT ID NCT07272278
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether adding a Chinese herbal formula called Liqin Zhike to standard asthma inhalers (ICS/LABA) can reduce the chance of cough returning in people with cough variant asthma. About 236 adults aged 18 to 70 who are newly diagnosed will take either the inhaler alone or the inhaler plus the herbal formula. The main goal is to see if the combination lowers symptom recurrence.
