Die Anwendung lipidhaltiger Nasensalbe bei allergischer Rhinitis — eine Therapieoption?

Abstract

The test agent used in our study contains a lipid fraction, in this case in the form of high purity, long chain hydrocarbons. By local application, a significant improvement of the total symptomatology was shown. The mechanism has not been clarified. Owing to the efficacy and low risk of side effects, this seems to be a promising adjuvant therapy for allergic rhinitis. The probetoric use of this nasal ointment as a supportive therapeutic option should be reviewed in further clinical studies.
