Overview
A few prophylactic treatments have been tried with variable results, principally terbutaline and theophylline.
Prevention
The prevention of episodes of SCLS has involved two approaches. The first has long been identified with the Mayo Clinic and it recommends treatment with beta agonists such as theophylline, terbutaline and montelukast sodium.[1] The second, more recent approach pioneered in France involves monthly intravenous infusions of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG), and the growing case-report evidence is encouraging.[2][3][4][5]
A recent review of clinical experience with 28 European SCLS patients suggests that either prophylactic treatment may reduce the frequency and severity of attacks and may improve survival.[6]
