title: [Specific immunotherapy using Alpha-Fraction-Retard-D. pteronyssinus. Double-blind study in asthma].
abstract: A multicenter, double blind clinical study on two homogeneous, treated and untreated groups, has allowed an objective appreciation of the results of specific immunotherapy using the alpha-fraction of D. pteronyssinus in asthma. A statistically significant difference was seen of the consumption of drugs in the treated group and in infants of less than 5 years (p = 0.047). Tolerance, evaluated as a function of local and secondary effects was excellent and comparable in the two groups.
