Abstract

Was to summarize data on the role and place of herbal remedies, in particular, the extract from the roots of Pelargonium sidoides (EPs 7630) in the treatment of acute sinusitis. Materials of scientific publications included in the Cochrane Library, information bases of the RSCI, MEDLINE, PubMed were used as a data source. The choice of material was carried out according to the keywords: epidemiology of acute sinusitis, modern treatment of acute sinusitis, colds, herbal remedies, Pelargonium sidoides. Analysis of published clinical trial data demonstrates evidence that EPs 7630 is significantly superior to placebo in reducing the duration and severity of symptoms of acute respiratory infection and indicates the advisability of including an extract from Pelargonium sidoides (EPs 7630) roots in OS treatment protocols. The high safety profile and clinically significant efficacy of this drug make EPs 7630 an important component of drug therapy for acute sinusitis.
