Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

Mite, Mite and Bacterial or Placebo

All treatments were given by sublingual route according to schedule of EAACI, with some modification. Patients received up-dosing sublingual drops once a day, reaching in approximately 3 months a monthly maintenance dose of 36 μg of Der p 1 given three times a week in alternate days for mite, mite and bacterial allergen extract, and no Der p 1 and no bacterial components in the placebo group. Doses were delivered by using vials equipped with a metered-dose dropper, and subjects were instructed to hold the solution under the tongue for 2 min and not to eat or drink for 60 min after the dose. Subjects self-administered the treatment at home. Adjustments in the schedule were made on an individual basis according to standard guidelines for specific immunotherapy
