title: [Immunomodulating and therapeutic effects of the STAVA inj. preparation in acne vulgaris].
abstract: The authors administered to 20 patients with acne vulgaris (14 patients with the papulopustulous form of acne, 6 patients with the indurative or cystic form of acne) the preparation STAVA inj. After treatment they evaluated the therapeutic effect of the preparation and the state of immunity of the patient. Treatment failed in three patients with the cystic form where there was a severe deficiency of the cellular immunity component. In six patients, where the cellular immunity was deficient treatment was satisfactory and it was almost restored to normal after treatment. In 11 patients the authors recorded an excellent therapeutic effect already after three weeks' administration and after treatment they recorded complete recovery of cellular immunity. The authors recommend this immunomodulating treatment when other treatment is not effective or contraindicated. In the conclusion they emphasize that STAVA inj. are an excellent immunostimulating preparation when cellular immunity is deficient. The therapeutic effect is good and so is the tolerance; there are no side-reactions.
