AN OPEN ASSESSMENT OF BECOTIDE® (BECLOMETHASONE DIPROPIONATE) NASAL SPRAY IN SEASONAL ALLERGIC RHINITIS

Abstract
The effect of beclomethasone dipropionate (Becotide) intranasally on hay-fever has been studied in 38 adult volunteers with grass pollen allergy. The trial was carried out as an open assessment with simultaneous pollen count during the months of June and July, 1974. With the dose 300 mug/day intranasally, 95 per cent of the subjects regarded the treatment as successful for the nasal symptoms. No effect on eye symptoms was recorded, and no evident side-effects were noted.
