A clinical test was carried out on 170 West German army soldiers suffering from common cold. The test was conducted on a monocentric, randomized, non-sequential, and inter-individual basis; the research workers were kept blind on the identity of the medication. The purpose of testing was to compare the effectiveness of a combination homeopathic preparation (Gripp-Heel) with that of acetylsalicylic acid. On the 4th and 10th treatment days, no significant difference was determined with respect to changes in clinical findings, subjectively assessed complaints, or length of time the patients were unable to work. Thus the two preparations possess comparative effectiveness in the treatment of the common cold.
对170名患普通感冒的西德陆军士兵进行了一项临床试验。该试验以单中心、随机、非连续和个体间对照的方式进行；研究人员对药物的身份不知情。测试的目的是比较一种顺势疗法复方制剂（Gripp-Heel）与乙酰水杨酸的疗效。在治疗的第4天和第10天，在临床症状变化、主观评估的不适症状或患者无法工作的时长方面，未发现显著差异。因此，这两种制剂在治疗普通感冒方面具有相当的疗效。
