• Confirmed parainfluenza at screening by one of the following methods using any sample type: Respiratory Virus Panel, Direct fluorescent antibody (DFA), Qualitative/quantitative RT-PCR test for parainfluenza virus performed at the local laboratory (a confirmatory PCR test will be done at the central lab but is not required to start the patient on study).
• Confirmed PIV lower tract disease for subjects on mechanical ventilation will be defined as PIV detection in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) or biopsy within last 7 days of screening
• Confirmed PIV lower tract disease for subjects on non-invasive positive pressure ventilation or supplemental oxygen will be defined as all of the following within the last 7 days of screening: New pulmonary infiltrate on chest imaging and at least one PIV sign and/or symptom as defined in section 10.3.6
• Female subjects of child-bearing potential who are capable of conception must be post-menopausal (one year or greater without menses), surgically incapable of childbearing, or practicing two effective methods of birth control. Acceptable methods include abstinence, intrauterine device, spermicide, barrier, male partner surgical sterilization and hormonal contraception.

All reproductive female subjects must have a negative serum pregnancy test during the screening visit.

• In the opinion of the Investigator, subjects with a low chance of survival during the first 5 days of treatment.
• Subjects treated with oral, aerosolized or intravenous (IV) ribavirin for the treatment of PIV. A forty-eight hour (48 hr) wash out period prior to randomization is allowed.
• Subjects with a history of RSV or MPV
• Subjects taking any other investigational drug used to research or treat PIV.
• Subjects with a history of allergic reactions to lactose.
• Subjects with a history of documented Pseudomonas aeruginosa pneumonia confirmed radiographically and by culture from BAL.
