Brief Summary: The primary objective was to assess the effect of Xepol compared to placebo on physical health and on muscle strength in subjects with post-polio syndromeThe secondary objective was to assess the effect of Xepol compared to placebo on functional balance activity patterns pain fatigue sleep vitality muscular strength pulmonary capacity walking ability balance and safety
Detailed Description: Study Rationale

In an earlier open and non-controlled study in 10 patients with PPS Xepol was given during three days The patients showed improvements in muscular strength and co-ordination and a decrease in pain The aim of this study was to investigate if these findings can be confirmed in a larger double-blind randomised and placebo controlled study

There are no simple clinical findings and specific laboratory changes that can be used to indicate the severity and progress of PPS Different self-reporting questionnaires and objective measures of disability have often been used in clinical studies including SF-36 questionnaire muscle strength measurement and walking test The primary and secondary variables in this study were based on the clinical experience and literature reviewed
