Abstract
The local effect of an aqueous suspension of beclomethasone dipropionate on human nasal mucociliary clearance was studied in 14 healthy volunteers. A triple blind, randomized, placebo controlled, cross-over design was utilised. Measurements of mucociliary clearance were made before treatment, after a single dose and after one week of continuous treatment either with placebo or active substance, utilising the saccharine-dye test. No change in mucociliary clearance was found after treatment with beclomethasone dipropionate or placebo suspension.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
