Allergic skin tests for house dust and control tests were done on 136 patients who had abnormal sensation in the throat and no nasal allergic symptoms, such as nasal obstruction, sneezing, or discharge. House dust tests were positive in 28 patients. They were given 2mg of Azelastine orally per day for the course of four weeks. Of the 28 patients, 22 were completed treatment. Subjective symptoms of abnormal sensation in the throat were reduced by more than 50% in 17 of the 22 patients (77.3%). These results suggest that type I allergy is one of the many factors which cause abnormal sensation in the throat.
