ABSTRACT:
A method of managing a patient having an accumulation of mucoid, mucopurulent or purulent material containing glycosaminoglycans, the method comprising the step of administering at least one glycosaminoglycans degrading enzyme to the patient in an amount therapeutically effective to reduce at least one of the following: the visco-elasticity of the material, pathogens infectivity and inflammation. An article of manufacture comprising an inhaler including, as an active ingredient, at least one glycosaminoglycans degrading enzyme for generating aerosols including the enzyme for management a patient having an accumulation of mucoid, mucopurulent or purulent material containing glycosaminoglycans.
