结局指标
主要结局
Change in Methacholine Sensitivity
时间窗: baseline and 8 weeks
Concentration of methacholine (mg/ml) at which participants forced expired volume in 1 sec (FEV1) is reduced by 20% (the provocation concentration of methacholine causing a 20% fall in FEV1-PC20). To measure if there is a significant difference in PC20 recorded at baseline to that recorded following 8 weeks treatment with omeprazole and ranitidine
次要结局
- Improvement in Cough Symptoms Measured Using Leicester Cough Questionnaire(8 weeks)
