Abstract

EPOS 2020 the recommendations for the treatment of patients with rhinosinusitis consider the effectiveness of herbal therapy and provide data on herbal remedies.

Objectives of the study: to evaluate the effectiveness of Sinuvit in the complex treatment of acute viral and acute post-viral rhinosinusitis.

Materials and methods: 25 patients with acute viral and post-viral rhinosinusitis were treated, in addition to standard treatment, with Synuvit. The control group consisted of 25 patients received standard treatment.

Results: The use of Synuvit in patients with acute rhinosinusitis already on the 5th day of treatment contributes to a more active recovery of mucociliary clearance indicators of the nasal cavity according to the sugar test by 8.3%, a decrease in swelling of the mucous membrane by 34.5% and a decrease in the amount of secretions by 12.5% in comparison with patients of the control group. The level of pain according to the VAS score in patients of the main group was lower by 27.3% on the 5th day of treatment. Assessment of tolerability Synovitis in all patients is good. Adverse events and allergic reactions associated with the use of Synuvit were not noted.

Conclusions: The use of Sinuvit in patients with acute rhinosinusitis contributes to a more active recovery of mucociliary clearance indicators and reduces clinical signs of inflammation compared to the control group. Synovitis is an effective anti-inflammatory agent and accelerates recovery in patients with acute rhinosinusitis.

Keywords: Rhinosinusitis, treatment, Sinuvit.
