| Summary: | This trial studied effectiveness and safety of pidotimoid (Imunorix) in complex treatment of children with acute respiratory infection (ARI). Treatment with pidotimoid during 2 weeks (n = 30) resulted in lesser duration of fever and intoxication symptoms, and symptoms of laryngo-tracheitis, compared to control group (n = 30).
