title: Long-term treatment with budesonide in vasomotor rhinitis.
abstract: Twelve patients entered a long-term study of budesonide treatment in vasomotor rhinitis. The efficacy of the treatment was studied. Possible systemic side effects were studied via an ACTH stimulation test prior to and during treatment. The local effect in the nasal mucosa was studied by means of a nasal biopsy before and after one year of treatment. The treatment has proved effective, while producing no systemic or local side effects during a one-year treatment period.
