Azatadine Maleate/Pseudoephedrine Sulfate Repetabs versus Placebo in the Treatment of Severe Perennial Allergic Rhinitis

Abstract

Sixty patients took part in a randomized double-blind comparison of azatadine/pseudoephedrine versus placebo for the treatment of severe perennial allergic rhinitis. After 2 weeks of therapy subjective patient appraisal as well as objective physician evaluation showed the active drug combination to have a beneficial effect (72% good to excellent improvement versus 40% for placebo) in reducing the signs and symptoms of this allergic disorder. No adverse reactions were reported.
