Nasodren®: How much time to symptom relief and clinical recovery?

Nasodren® has demonstrated its efficacy and safety in rhinosinusitis treatment in 15 comparative studies and in 7 cohort follow-up studies. In all of these studies, Nasodren® was administered at a dose of 2.6 mg /day (1.3 mg per nostril/ day) between 7 and 14 days in monotherapy or in combination.

In 5 of these studies (3 performed in adults and 2 in children) the time to symptom relief and clinical recovery with Nasodren® was compared with a combination of standard therapy.

Symptom relief: Nasodren® relieves symptoms after 3-4 days of treatment. In comparison with the conventional combination treatment, alone or in combination it shows a quicker recovery (3-4 versus 6-7 days) (1,2,3). Nasodren® administered in monotherapy shows similar efficacy than the standard combination treatment, but with a quicker recovery. In patients with purulent RS, Nasodren® also showed a quicker recovery, with a 4-day difference vs. conventional treatment group (7.3 versus 11.4 days)  (1).
Clinical recovery (Cure): Nasodren® recovery from RS symptoms in 7-10 days of treatment, starting on days 6-7. Nasodren presents a faster cure

than the standard combined therapy (7-10 versus 10- 12 days) (1, 3). In children, Nasodrenâ recovery from clinical symptoms after 2-3 days of treatment. Nasodrenâ also normalized the rhinoscopic pattern quicker than in the control group (4-5 versus 8-10 days) (4,5).

In a cohort study, Nasodren® improved the overall state and reduced the relevant symptom in patients with ARS and CRS exacerbation in 5 days (6).

From this review it can be concluded that in all clinical studies Nasodren® shows that it is one of the treatment options for the beginning of an ARS episode, as monotherapy, even in non-purulent cases, as well as in combination. Compared with other treatments, Nasodren halved the time to relieve symptoms in adults and children, with a fast improvement in the general well-being and QoL of patients. Nasodren also reduces time to cure by 55% to 75% in comparison to the standard treatments, with an important contribution to the reduction of disease progression time, as well as to the number of complications and chronification (4).
