Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative StudyAssessment of palatability of two sublingual diluents in allergic patients: a prospective pilot study.
Taste of diluents could have an effect on the ultimate patient compliance and acceptability of allergenic extract formulations used in sublingual allergy immunotherapy. This study assessed the palatability and compared the flavor and taste preferences of two sublingual diluents in allergic adult patients. ⋯ Fifty percent glycerin had better taste attributes and phenolated saline induced unpleasant oral sensation on sublingual dosing.
