5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of intranasal Triamcinolone delivered through a bio-absorbable nasal dressing verses oral steroids and a saline soaked dressing, in the treatment and prevention of early nasal polyposis.
Detailed Description
nasopore, a bio-absorbable nasal dressing, may offer an alternative route of sustained steroid drug delivery. The use of topical targeted intranasal steroids may prevent the routine adverse effects of oral steroids while maintaining the same therapeutic / clinical efficacy.
