ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides the art with methods for enhancing the sense of smell. The method involves application of an inhibitor of phosphodiesterase to the olfactory epithelium. New inhibitors can be screened using one or more phosphodiesterases isolated from olfactory mucosa. Nebulizers for applying inhibitors to the olfactory mucosa are also provided.
