[Topical preparations for therapy of tonsillar pathology].

ABSTRACT

This paper highlights clinical and diagnostic aspects of tonsillar pathology with special reference to modern methods for the treatment of pharyngeal diseases of different etiology. A detailed characteristic of local symptomatic therapy is presented including the use of NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs). These agents have advantages over other medications for local therapy due to high anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities. Also, they significantly improve the patients' quality of life. The use of a local anti-inflammatory drug is a major component of the treatment of inflammatory pharyngeal pathology. Regardless of the nature of the disease, either bacterial or viral.
