This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing whether , a medicine made from ivy extract, works as well as NAC (a standard mucus-thinning medication) for treating symptoms of COPD. You would be randomly assigned to take one of these two medications for one month. The researchers want to see how well each medicine helps with coughing, breathing, and quality of life.
COPD patients often struggle with excess mucus and cough that affect their daily activities. Doctors currently use NAC to help clear mucus from the lungs, but researchers want to know if this medication could work better or if a natural alternative like ivy extract might be just as good with fewer side effects.

You would visit the clinic to have breathing tests and answer questions about your cough and quality of life. Then you would take either the ivy extract syrup or NAC twice a day for one month. You would return for a check-in visit on day 15 to make sure the medication is working well and you are not having side effects. On day 30, you would have the same tests and questionnaires repeated to see how much your symptoms improved.
