To assess the therapeutic effects of morniflumate, a new non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, a controlled study versus imidazole-2-hydroxybenzoate, both combined with amoxicillin, and antibiotic therapy alone was carried out on 60 patients, aged 18 to 60 with flare-ups of chronic bronchitis. After administering morniflumate, all the clinical parameters assessed (objective auscultation, cough, expectoration, exertional dyspnoea, chest pain, hyperthermia) had improved. The modifications observed in this group were greater and earlier when compared to those of the control groups. No significant variations of laboratory parameters nor any particular side-effects were reported.

Sixty adult patients, 31 men and 29 women, aged 44 to 60, and affected by acute bronchitis of probable bacterial aetiology were randomly divided into 3 groups of 20 and treated respectively with: 1) morniflumate (one 700 mg tablet twice a day) + amoxicillin (one 1 g tablet twice a day); 2) feprazone (one 200 mg tablet twice a day) + amoxicillin (one 1 g tablet twice a day); 3) amoxicillin (one 1 g tablet twice a day). Mean therapy duration was 9 days. The action of the drugs under study was assessed by objective chest examination and by evaluating the modifications of cough intensity and frequency, chest pain expectorating difficulty, amount of expectoration, body temperature.
