[The use of manganese-copper-oligosol in the treatment of chronic pharyngitis (author's transl)].

Considering the difficulties involved in treating chronic pharyngitis and the frequent failure of therapies, the authors tried Manganese-Copper-Oligosol. The study involves 148 ambulatory patients who were given the drug twice daily in the morning and at midday, for a period varying from 1 to 3 months. The following informations were noted; the symptoms; the aspect of the mucous membrane; associated diseases, if any; predisposing factors; hygienic and alimentary habits. Global results: 46,5% good and very good results; 32,5% quite good results; 21% no result. The authors considered as good and very good the cases in which they noted both an objective aspect of the mucous membrane and a subjective improvement, the results were considered when the improvement was only objective. No intolerance or side effects were noted.
