ABSTRACT
Mucociliary activity is a fundamental aspect of the clearance function of the respiratory tract; mucociliary transport time being the easiest parameter to record in regard to the overall, more complex function of nasal clearance. A double blind, multicenter randomized study was carried out on 40 rhinopathy patients divided into two groups and treated with tiaprofenic acid 300 mg or a placebo twice a day for seven consecutive days. Before and after treatment the following were recorded subjective and objective nasal MCT time, using an original composition of vegetable charcoal powder and saccharin powder at 3%; nasal obstruction. The authors conclude that the treatment of rhinitis with tiaprofenic acid improved not only the clinical symptomatology but also the mucociliary transport time and rhinomanometric examination.
