Study objectives | Concomitant therapy with cineole will improve lung function, symptoms and quality of life in patients with asthma. |
Ethics approval(s) | The ethics committee of the University Hospital Nuernberg-Erlangen and the ethics committees of the Medical Associations of Bayern, Hessen, Nordrhein, Westfalen and Hamburg all gave approval on the 19th October 2006 |

Intervention | Cineole was given three times daily, two capsules with 100 mg cineole each, over a period of 6 months. The capsules in the placebo group were organoleptically identical but without any active ingredient. Measurements of lung function by Spirometry, asthma symptoms and quality of life by the Asthma Questionnaire of Quality of Life (AQLQ). |
