Abstract
Hyperallergenic conditions are treated by the administration of interferon at a dosage of from about 0.01 to about 5 IU/lb./day such that the interferon is held in contact with the patient's oral and pharyngeal mucosae. In preferred embodiments, IFN-α is administered in a solid dosage form, e.g., a saliva-dissolvable lozenge.
