ABSTRACT:
A therapeutic method comprising counteracting or preventing pathologies mediated by IL-5, including those characterized by eosinophil infiltration, degranulation and inflammation, by administering to a mammal in need of such therapy, one or more compounds that bind to the eosinophil sulfonylurea receptor, optionally in combination with one or more topical anesthetics and/or glucocorticoids.
