In 1992 in El Paso, TX a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled study of subjects (n=130) with allergic rhinitis in 1992-1993 was conducted. The average IgE level of the placebo treated subjects remained essentially flat, while the average IgE level for active treated subjects was reduced significantly from baseline to Day 30.7 In 1993 in El Paso, TX, valid subjects (n=66) returned a second set of symptom diaries which they had completed for days 365 to 395 (the same period, one year after the first set of symptom diaries). The active group had mean symptom scores showing statistically significant decreases from 1992 to 1993. The placebo group had increased symptoms in 1993. (The relevant pollen counts at the study site in 1993 were much higher than in 1992, leading to expectation of higher symptoms.)7

A new HAY FEVER breakthrough clinically proven to reduce allergy symptoms and antihistamine use. How long were symptoms reduced? Studies showed a one-year reduction. How long? Yes, one year! this medication is a lozenge taken twice daily for 21 days. this medication is non-drowsy, natural and available without a prescription. this medication is a 21 day treatment. this medication users report reductions in symptoms one year after completing the treatment without taking additional this medication. How long? Yes one year, compared to 24-hour antihistamines it''s much longer lasting. Patients known to have seasonal allergy were examined in clinical studies in five U.S. states by qualified medical doctors. Each patient was given either the real this medication or a placebo (a dummy treatment). Nobody knew who got what. Patients recorded in symptons diaries how bad their symptoms were during and after the treatment. About one year later, patients completed a second diary. 64% of the group of patients receiving this medication recorded less sneezing, runny nose and nasal congestion one year after completing the treatment in a clinical study. This compares to 35% of the placebo group.

Patients gave blood serum samples prior to the treatment in 1992 and one year later in 1993. They were immunoassayed for specific IgE discontinuedperfumes antibodies using a chemi-luminescent technique. Statistician Bradley Rosebrook ran T-Tests comparing average baseline IgE levels to one-year. For the seasonal allergens reported, the active group (n=34) had on average a greater reduction in IgE than the placebo group (n=33).7 On August 14, 1996 representatives of Broncorp, Inc. met with the Division Director, Dr. John Jenkins, and 14 other FDA officials of the Pulmonary Division at a PreNDA meeting. Dr. Mansfield made a presentation on the 1995 study data (n=165) from Oregon, Washington and Idaho. He noted that together the data failed to show statistical superiority of vitamin B12 on the primary endpoint. He noted that in Washington and Idaho, during the later part of the study, there was a drop in the pollen counts and marked improvements in symptoms in both the vitamin B12 and placebo groups. (This made discontinuedperfumes a therapeutic benefit of the B12 treatment difficult to demonstrate.) But that the pollen counts in Oregon remained higher throughout the study and that the data from Oregon showed a significant difference between the active and placebo groups.8
