Abstract
Omalizumab is an effective treatment for inducing and maintaining long-term remission for patients with severe chronic urticaria. Onset of remission is rapid, although duration is variable, with some patients requiring maintenance treatment. Large-scale randomized trials are necessary to confirm our findings that support the long-term efficacy of anti-IgE therapy for the treatment of this disease.
