ABSTRACT:
The invention includes a composition and method of treatment of sinusitis. A preferred embodiment of the invention is a composition for treatment of sinusitis comprising a therapeutically effective amount of one or more peptides selected from the group of peptides with a C-terminal sequence consisting of KPV (SEQ ID NO:1), HFRWGKPV (SEQ ID NO:2), and SYSMEHFRWGKPV (SEQ ID NO:3) used in combination with a therapeutically effective amount of an antihistamine/decongestant, corticosteroid, fungicide and/or antibiotic.In yet another embodiment of the invention, one or one or more peptides selected from the group of peptides with a C-terminal sequence consisting of KPV (SEQ ID NO:1), HFRWGKPV (SEQ ID NO:2), and SYSMEHFRWGKPV (SEQ ID NO:3), which may or may not be in combination with therapeutically effective amounts of antibiotics, corticosteroids and/or antihistamine/decongestants, are topically or systemically applied to treat sinusitis.
