Treatment of Rhinitis Sicca Anterior with Ectoine Containing Nasal Spray

Objectives. The safety and efficacy of ectoine nasal spray and ectoine nasal spray with dexpanthenol in the treatment of rhinitis sicca were evaluated in two studies. Design and Methods. Two noninterventional observational studies were performed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a nasal spray containing ectoine (study 1) and ectoine/dexpanthenol (study 2) over a period of two weeks includi...

Acetylcysteine in kerato-conjunctivitis sicca.

KERATO-CONJUNCTIVITIS sicca is the condition which follows a reduction of secretion by the main and accessory lacrimal glands, and is characterized by interpalpebral staining of the bulbar conjunctiva with rose Bengal, punctate corneal staining with punctate opacities in Bowman's zone, the presence of thick stringy mucous strands in the lower fornices, and corneal filaments, the latter being ne...

Neisseria sicca pneumonia and bronchiectasis.

Neisseria sicca, although considered a harmless saprophyte, has been recognised as an etiologic agent in three cases of pneumonitis, and rare cases of endocarditis, meningitis, and osteomyelitis, particularly in immunocompromised hosts. We report the case of a 76-year-old man with a community-acquired pneumonia, in whom both sputum samples and bronchial secretions obtained with bronchoscopic pr...

The presumptive diagnosis was made on clinical grounds in the majority of cases, the signs and symptoms being those usually described-redness and discomfort, tenacious mucous discharge, and corneal erosions and filaments. Confirmation was obtained by the measurement of the lacrimal secretion by the filter-paper test (Schirmer, 1903) and in doubtful cases by staining with rose bengal. The relati...
