[Clinical and electrophysiological study of isaxonine in peripheral facial paralysis (author's transl)].

Abstract

In a double-blind survey carried out versus a placebo, the action of isaxonine was examined with 42 patients suffering from peripheral facial paralysis, most often a frigore. The statistical analysis of the clinical and electrophysiological results shows a significantly higher improvement for the isaxonine group, both in quality and speed of recovery of the nervus facialis functions. Clinical and biological tolerance posed no particular problem.
