Mode of Action
The unique formulation of CURITOUX targets throat irritation, and throat mucus accuumulation to deliver relief and soothing effects. Its mechanism of action operates through three key pathways:
Protective Barrier Effect: CURITOUX forms a thin, protective film over the throat mucosa, regulating mucus adhesion in wet cough while shielding the irritated mucosa in dry cough. This barrier helps reduce throat discomfort and supports natural symptom relief.
Osmotic and Cleaning Effect: The product's high osmotic activity helps optimize mucus consistency in wet cough, facilitating natural clearance, while in dry cough, it maintains hydration, alleviating throat dryness and irritation.
Cellular Repair and Growth Effect: By creating a clean and hydrated biological surface, CURITOUX immediately triggers cell growth and healing. This helps restore the integrity of the throat mucosa, further alleviating symptoms and promoting recovery.
Clinical Trial Results
The efficacy of CURITOUX has been demonstrated in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controllled trial over two weeks. The study included 54 patients, with 39 receiving the test product and 15 receving the comparator. The results were pretty impressive:
- Severity: There was a 89% reduction in cough severity within 12 days.
- Frequency: There was a 90% reduction in cough frequency within 12 days.
- Throat pain: There was a 95% reduction in throat pain within 12 days.
- Throat irritation: There was a 97% reduction in throat irritation within 12 days.
- The requirement for antibiotics was significantly reduced in the test group (15% of patients) compared to the placebo group (87%).
These results demonstrate the effectiveness of CURITOUX in providing rapid and lasting relief from the symptoms of cough, while also reducing the need for antibiotics. No side effects were recorded, further attesting to the safety of the product.
CURITOUX by Vitrobio represents a new era in cough treatment, offering a safe, effective, and rapid solution to alleviate the symptoms and address the underlying causes of dry and wet cough.
