English Summary: |
This
study looked at the use of Xylometazoline with vitamin
B5 to treat rhinitis. A total of 61 participants with
rhinitis were enrolled in this study. Half of the
participants were given xylometazoline alone, while
the other half were given xylometazoline with vitamin
B5. Both treatments provided symptom reduction for
rhinitis. The addition of vitamin B5 improved the
tolerance of the treatment for the participants. This
suggests that the addition of vitamin B5 is an improvement
to the use of xylometazoline alone. Vitamin B5 can
have an added benefit to the treatment of rhinitis.
