    Notes: Background Controversy still exists about the effect of 0.02% benzalkonium chloride (BKC). a preservative in many nasal sprays, on human nasal epithelium in vivo. Objective To determine the safety of BKC by assessing its effect on the function and morphology of cilia of human nasal epithelium.Methods A single-centre, double-blind nasal biopsy study in 22 patients with perennial allergic rhinitis, receiving fluticasone propionate aqueous nasal spray (FPANS) containing BKC. BKC plus placebo or placebo alone for 6 weeks. Before, at two weekly intervals during treatment and 2 weeks after treatment ceased an indigocarmine saccharine transport time (ICST) was performed. Results ICST results did not significantly vary between the groups. There was no statistical relationship between the number of ciliated cells present and the treatment the patients received. Scanning and transmission electron microscopy examination showed no effects of BKC.Conclusion Despite reports of its ciliostatic effects in vitro. BKC did not have such an effect when it was applied for 6 weeks (with/without fluticasone propionale) to the nasal mucosa of perennial allergic rhinitis patients in vivo.

    Notes: Background: Fluticasone propionate is a new potent, topically active corticosteroid with ncgligahle oral bioavailability. Data on its comparative efficacy in perennial allergic and non-allergic rhinitis are limited.Objective: To compare the efficacy and safety of fluticasone propionate aqueous nasal spray (FPANS) 200μg once or twice daily with beclomethasone dipropionate aqueous nasal spray (BDP) 200μg twice daily and placebo in patients with allergic and nonallergic perennial rhinitis.Methods: The 12-week study had a multicenlre, double-blind, randomized, parallel group design. Efficacy was assessed from symptom scores recorded on daily diary cards.Results: FPANS 200μg once or twice daily was significantly better than placebo but not better than BDP in relieving the nasal symptoms of rhinitis. FPANS at either dose was equally effective in the treatment of allergic and non-allergic perennial rhinitis. There were few adverse events and no treatment-related abnormalities in laboratory measurements in either FPANS-treated group. Comparisons between treatment groups indicated that FPANS was as well tolerated as placebo and BDP at the doses studied.Conclusions: In the majority of patients FPANS 200μg once daily is as effective as BDP 200μg twice daily in the relief of perennial allergic rhinitis.

    Notes: This multicentre, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group study was designed to compare the efficacy and tolerability of fluticasone propionate aqueous nasal spray 200 μg once daily (FPANS 200 μg od) with FPANS 200 μg twice daily (bd) in patients whose seasonal rhinitis symptoms were not completely controlled with FPANS 200 μg od. A total of 549 patients initially received FPANS 200 μg od during the open-treatment phase of the study. After 2 weeks, 65% of patients had their symptoms well controlled by FPANS 200 μg od and continued with this treatment for a further 2 weeks. The remainder received either FPANS 200 μg od or FPANS 200 μg bd for a further 2 weeks. Efficacy was evaluated by the analysis of symptom-free days. In the uncontrolled group, there was a significant increase in the percentage of symptom-free days in the FPANS 200 μg bd group over the FPANS 200 μg od group for nasal blockage on waking (P〈0.05) and nasal blockage during the day (P〈0.05). Similar trends were observed for sneezing, rhinorrhoea, nasal itching, and eye symptoms. There was a significant increase in the percentage of days with a symptom score of less than 2 in the FPANS 200 μg bd group for nasal blockage during the day (P 〈 0.05). Adverse events were similar in nature and frequency in each treatment group. It is concluded that in the majority of patients symptoms of seasonal rhinitis are well controlled by FPANS 200 μg od. In the minority of patients whose symptoms are not adequately controlled by a once daily dose, FPANS 200 μg bd provides additional relief, particularly from nasal blockage.

    Notes: Background:  Studies suggest that nasal treatment might influence lower airway symptoms and function in patients with comorbid rhinitis and asthma. We investigated the effect of intranasal, inhaled corticosteroid or the combination of both in patients with both pollen-induced rhinitis and asthma.Methods:  A total of 262 patients were randomized to 6 weeks’ treatment with intranasal fluticasone propionate (INFP) 200 μg o.d., inhaled fluticasone propionate (IHFP) 250 μg b.i.d., their combination, or intranasal or inhaled placebo, in a multicentre, double-blind, parallel-group study. Treatment was started 2 weeks prior to the pollen season and patients recorded their nasal and bronchial symptoms twice daily. Before and after 4 and 6 weeks’ treatment, the patients were assessed for lung function, methacholine responsiveness, and induced sputum cell counts.Results:  Intranasal fluticasone propionate significantly increased the percentages of patients reporting no nasal blockage, sneezing, or rhinorrhoea during the pollen season, compared with IHFP or intranasal or inhaled placebo. In contrast, only IHFP significantly improved morning peak-flow, forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) and methacholine PD20, and the seasonal increase in the sputum eosinophils and methacholine responsiveness.Conclusions:  In patients with pollen-induced rhinitis and asthma, the combination of intranasal and IHFP is needed to control the seasonal increase in nasal and asthmatic symptoms.

    Notes: Fluticasone propionate aqueous nasal spray (FPANS) contains fluticasone propionate, which is a new topically active glucocorticoid with approximately twice the potency of beclomethasone dipropionate. In this European multicentre study, 143 children with seasonal allergic rhinitis were recruited: 47 received FPANS 100 jag once a day (od), 46 received FPANS 200 μg od, and 50 patients received placebo od, for 4 weeks. Treatment efficacy was assessed using diary card nasal symptom scores for sneezing, rhinorrhoea, blockage and itching, and eye watering/irritation. Patients receiving FPANS 100 μg or FPANS 200 μg demonstrated statistically significant improvements in median nasal symptom scores in all the symptoms recorded, when compared with placebo. There were no statistically significant differences between the FPANS 100 μg and FPANS 200 μg groups in improvement in nasal symptom scores. There was no effect on eye watering/irritation symptoms which could be attributed to either FPANS 100 μg or FPANS 200 μg when compared with placebo. Use of rescue antihistamine medication was significantly reduced in the FPANS 100 μg group when compared with placebo. The adverse events profile was similar in all three treatment groups, and the events reported were generally mild and related to the patients’ rhinitis.
