*Ivy leaf extract versus conventional expectorant therapy
A Ukrainian study group** conducted a CCT comparing ivy with acetylcysteine in acute bronchitis. A total of 50 children were treated for 7 to 10 days with either a syrup containing ivy leaf extract or 300-1200 mg of acetylcysteine. Symptoms (cough, sputum, shortness of breath) improved in both groups after treatment. Compared to baseline, both treatment groups showed improved spirometric values (FVC, FEV1, PEF) after treatment. Spirometric parameters were significantly better in the group receiving the ivy formulation. The authors conclude that ivy leaf has bronchodilator effects as well as mucolytic effects.
