Abstract:
Purpose of the study. Generalization of data on the value of alternative and additional treatment of acute infectious rhinitis with Korizalia.
Material And Methods:
The material of scientific publications included in the Cochrane Library, information bases of the RSCI, MEDLINE, PubMed was used as a data source. The choice of material was carried out using the key words: colds, acute rhinitis, herbal medicine, homeopathic remedies.
Results:
Analysis of published clinical trial descriptions suggests the potential value of homeopathic medicines, in particular Korizalia, in improving the effectiveness of the treatment of acute rhinitis. The use of Korizalia in acute infectious rhinitis was more effective in relation to the main symptoms of ARI compared with placebo.
Conclusion:
The lack of optimal drugs for the etiotropic treatment of viral acute respiratory infections determines the relevance of alternative and complementary methods of treatment using drugs of natural origin. The drug Korizalia can be used for acute respiratory infections (acute infectious rhinitis) as an alternative drug or in combination with other drugs.
