NCT00963443

Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to determine the effectiveness of an acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) pseudoephedrine combination for the treatment of pain and congestion symptoms compared to the effectiveness of the individual components of the medicine and the placebo (dummy treatment that looks like the real thing).The combination product of acetylsalicylic acid / pseudoephedrine is already marketed in several European countries as Aspirin® Complex.
