The Effects of Livostin on Treatment of Patients with Seasonal Grass Pollinosis.

The clinical effects of Livostin(R) on patients with seasonal grass pollinosis were investigated by compairing the symptom, medication and symptom-medication scores before and after treatment, we found that the scores after treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment. These findindgs indicate that levocabastine hydrochloride is useful for the treatment of seasonal grass pollinosis.
