[Catalet--vaccine against hay fever]

Catalet is the Polish vaccine against pollinosis. It contains pollens of 13 species (mainly grass) and is used in the treatment of pollinosis. It is standardized in protein units. Allergen adsorption on aluminium hydroxide prolongs its absorption and decreases a number of the necessary injections. A four-year investigations in 30 patients (including 5 children) showed that Catalet tolerability is comparable with that of foreign-made preparations such as Alavac P, Desalerga F, and Allpyral-5 Grass mix.
