There is no specific treatment for acute viral rhinitis (common cold), but it generally takes more than a week.
Allergic rhinitis is treated with antihistamines or corticosteroidsnasal sprays. Various medications can be used to dry theexcessive nasal secretions.
Atrophic rhinitis is difficult to treat. Scabs that airway obstructionmay be reduced through nasal sprays.
Antihistamines, taken orally, are effective in reducing heavylacrimarii, irritants and nasal secretions, but not nasal congestion.
Corticosteroids in the form of drops or nasal sprays are veryeffective in treating nasal symptoms, but treatment should beinitiated at least one week before specific allergy season.Corticosteroids may be associated with oral antihistamines in the first week of treatment.
Cromoglicatul sodium is a medicine to prevent the release ofsubstances that cause allergic rhinitis symptoms. In the form ofnasal spray is less effective than nasal corticosteroids, but small children can be prescribed as an alternative to nasalbetamethasone drops.
For abundant tears may be prescribed antihistamine eye drops.
Desensitization therapy is very useful, especially if it started afterallergy season and continued throughout the year. This therapy isinstituted after the failure of other treatments and requires takingprecautions to avoid adverse reactions.
