ヒスタグロビンネビュライザーによるスギ花粉症予防の検討

抄録

One third of avial of Histaglobin with 2ml of distilled water was given by nebulizer to patients suffering from Japanese cedar pollinosis 2 or 3 times a week. This treatment was started preseasonally and continued during the pollen season for an average of 53.2 days. The records of nasal symptoms of 12 patients were analyzed by scoring the symptoms: number of days with severe nasal discharge or sneezing; comparison with previous year's experience, when the pollen counts were much lower than during the year of this trial; and the amount of other drugs used in 6 cases.
A good effect was obtained in 5 of the 7 patients who were able to continue the nebulizer more than twice a week throughout the observation period. Of the other 5 patients who had less frequent treatment 3 reported a good effect. These results suggest that this nebulizer could be useful prophylactically in a large number of patients with Japanese cedar pollinosis.
