Over a period of one year, 648 patients suffering from 4 different but very resistant syndromes due to intervertebral disc degenerations of the cervical and lumbosacral spine were treated in an identical way, but 50% of them received also catalase (Optidase¿) injections. Half of each group were males and half of them females, the age being 30--50 years. Catalase accelerates the recovery already within the first 3 weeks and the final results after 24 weeks are still significant. In addition, the study of the ischial syndrome was extended to a group of 1208 patients over a period of 5 years, confirming again the favourable effect of catalase. Catalase is generally well tolerated; dangerous reactions have not been noticed.
