Effects of sublingual immunotherapy on nasal symptoms and sleep disturbance in patients with Japanese cedar pollinosis

Japanese cedar (JC) pollinosis is the most common seasonal allergic rhinitis (AR) in Japan. AR reduces the quality of life not only because of nasal symptoms but also because of sleep disturbance. In the present study, we investigated the effects of sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) with a standardized JC pollen extract on nasal symptoms and AR-related sleep disturbance in patients with JC pollinosis.
