ABSTRACT:
As a remedy for prurigo, IFN-.gamma. is administered systemically, preferably intravenously and still preferably via drip infusion, in a daily dose of from 250,000 JRU to 4,000,000 JRU preferably once a day or in several portions depending on the conditions of the patient and side effects. The administration method and dose can be changed depending on the conditions, age, etc., of the patient.
IFN-.gamma. is highly effective in the treatment of prurigo. The action of IFN-.gamma. to normalize the imbalance in peripheral lymphocytes is suggested as the mechanism for the efficacy of IFN-.gamma. in the treatment of prurigo.
