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.
