Acute rhinosinusitis: basic misconceptions and the possibilities of standardized phitotherapy

Abstract

The article tells about the effects of herbal medicines in the treatment of acute rhinosinusitis. Pharmacological advantages of myrtol standardized are demonstrated which, besides exhibiting mucoactive action, also provides an anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and antibacterial effect. Results of an open controlled study of the efficacy and tolerability of GeloMyrtol® Forte in the course of treatment of acute and exacerbated chronic rhinosinusitis are demonstrated, which provide evidence that GeloMyrtol® Forte is recommended as monotherapy for acute mild rhinosinusitis.
