NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Treatment with a nasal spray containing the anti-fungal drug amphotericin B reduces the swelling and inflammation that occurs with chronic rhinosinusitis, a common cause of stuffy nose and facial pain, new research shows.
Amphotericin B is an old drug that can cause serious side effects, particularly to the kidneys. However, when given as a nasal spray, the drug does not get absorbed, effectively avoiding these effects, researchers report in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology.
