    Abstract:
    The purpose of this work was to evaluate the efficacy of the prevention of recurrent respiratory infections with the use of the immunomodulatory respiratory spray (IRS-19). The study involved 60 children at the age from 4 to 7 years allocated to three groups. Group 1 was comprised of 20 children treated by two daily irrigation of nasal sinuses with a seawater solution. Group 2 included 20 children treated by irrigation of nasal sinuses with IRS-19 twice daily during 2 weeks.. Group 3 consisted of 20 children treated by irrigation of nasal sinuses with a saline solution and topical immunostimulator IRS-19 twice daily. It was shown that therapy with IRS-19 resulted in a more than two-fold reduction in the frequency of relapses of the acute respiratory infections as compared with control.
