Abstract

In a pollen-season study of the clinical prophylactic effect in those with Japanese cedar allergy, we found that symptoms were less severe and quality of life (QOL) higher in those treated before rather than after pollen season started.
These results indicate that prophylacsis is effective in treating Japanese cedar pollinosis.
