Urticaria: Numerous controlled studies as well as case reports have demonstrated that Omalizumab can be employed successfully in approximately 75 % of patients with chronic spontaneous urticaria, leading to a dramatic decrement in symptoms with very few side effects. No other drug currently available is comparable, and the success rate in patients resistant to antihistamines is no different.
