抄録

In a clinical trial of the efficacy of roxithromycin (RXM) 150mg was administered twice a day to patients with chronic sinusitis. Subjective improvement was noted in 72.4%, and objective improvement was confirmed in 65.5% by endonasal findings and in 44.8% by X-ray findings after treatment with RXM for 8 to 12 weeks. One patient complained of epigastric pain, but it was mild. The administration of RXM did not affect the nasal bacterial flora.<br>An in vitro study showed that RXM significantly suppressed the production of TNF-a by tonsillar cells stimulated with PHA, LPS or RSV. RXM also blocked the disturbance of ciliary activity in nasal epithelial cells induced by the administration of TNF-a. RXM may control inflammation by suppressing the production of and blocking the adverse effects of certain regulatory cytokines.
