Brief Summary   This study is a randomized, open label, comparative, multi-centre trial comparing the safety and efficacy of Sustained release mucoregulator and Immediate release mucoregulator for 2 weeks in 200 patients with bronchial asthma that will be conducted in four centers in India only. The primary outcome measures will be evaluation of Average change in Forced expiratory volume in one second from baseline to end of treatment. The secondary outcomes will be evaluation Average change from baseline to end of trial in Forced expiratory vital capacity, Evaluation of auscultatory pattern, Average change from baseline to end of study in Symptom score of Cough, Difficulty in expectorating, Dyspnea, Cyanosis, Expectoration characteristic, Evaluation clinical global impression on severity (CGI-S) and clinical global impression on improvement (CGI-I). The anticipated date of enrollment will be 05th Jun 2010, subject to registration at CTRI. This is not a global trial.
