چکیده

In a controlled study of 75 patients suffering from chronic pharyngitis: 30 were treated with H2-receptor antagonist, 30 with H1-receptor antagonist, local decongestants and antiseptic gargles: and 15 treated with alum, salt or Dispirin gargles acted as controls. Best response was obtained with the first mode of treatment, raising the possibility of role of the H2-receptors in causing chronic pharyngitis. The difference was highly significant (P less than 0.001).
