[Changes in serum levels of specific and total IgE in patients with allergic rhinopathy treated with H2 antagonists].
A study has been made of the effects of H2 antagonists in patients with perennial allergic rhinitis with sensitivity towards a single allergen: parietaria. During two years of observation. The patients underwent three cycles of treatment "a la demande". In 70% of the cases an improvement was observed in the symptomatology and a decrease in total serum IgE, while specific IgE remained unvaried. Subsequent treatments showed results overlapping the first, with further improvements.
