J Biol Regul Homeost Agents. 2019;33(2):609-615.

Abstract

Inflammation is a common pathogenic mechanism involved in many otorhinolaryngological (ORL) disorders. Broser® is an oral nutraceutical currently containing bromelain 100 mg, escin 30 mg, and selenium 42.5 mcg. It could exert a safe and effective anti-inflammatory activity by virtue of these components. Therefore, the aim of the current survey, conducted in clinical practice of 84 Italian ORL centers, was to evaluate its safety and efficacy in the treatment of patients.

Keywords: selenium; inflammation; otorhinolaryngology; bromelain; escin.
