A case report of the successful treatment of recurrent aphthous stomatitis with some preparations of orally administered transfer factor.

A patient with severe disabling recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) was treated with four different preparations of oral human transfer factor (TF), as well as placebo, following a double-blind protocol. Two of the TF preparations had a significant effect upon the course of the patient's illness by prolonging the interval between attacks and decreasing the severity of attacks. No side effects attributable to any of the preparations were noted by the patient. Thus, some but not all preparations of human transfer factor given orally are an effective therapy for RAS.
