Description

In order to study the effectiveness, safety, and usefulness of remicut® on chronic urticaria, a multicenter open study was conducted. Forty five patients were enrolled in this study and treated with 4 mg/day of emedastine difumarate for two weeks. Results obtained were following; marked improvement in 14 (33%), moderate improvement in 14 (33%), slight improvement in 8 (19%). The final global improvement ratio was 65%. Itching or eruption (wheals and erythema) disappeared within two weeks' administration in 60.5%, 53.5% of the patients, respectively. A clinical adverse reactions, such as sleepiness, were seen in 8 patients and disappeared without symptomatic treatment. Thus, the global utility ratio was 62.2%(28/45).<BR>These results support the efficacy and safety of remicut® in management for choronic urticaria.
