Abstract

It is a common knowledge that the number of Japanese Cedar Pollinosis patients is increasing. Prophylactic treatment is recommended as one of the pollinosis treatments.<br>In 2005, Japanese cedar pollens were extensively scattered. We used the Japan Rhino-conjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (JRQLQ) to examine the utility of prophylactic treatment using olopatadine hydrochloride in 2005.<br>As a result, symptoms in the prophylactic treatment group were milder than those in the untreated group. Furthermore, the prophylactic group could maintain a good Quality of Life.<br>In years with extensive scattering of Japanese cedar pollen, prophylactic treatment with olopatadine hydrochloride is effective, and should be considered when choosing a strongly effective drug for prophylactic treatment.
