symptoms of allergic rhinitis can be seasonal oryear-round

In medicine, it is accepted to differentiate two main types of the considered disease:

  1. Seasonal allergic rhinitis. It is also called hay fever, it occurs only during the flowering period of certain plants - for example, in August, an allergic rhinitis may develop in the hay fever for ragweed blooming, and in June - for poplar fluff.
  2. All-year allergic rhinitis.

    In this case, the problem in question is present in a person all year round and means that the allergen is permanent - for example, house dust, animal hair.

Note: an allergic rhinitis develops only if the allergen - the pollen of the plant, the animal's hair - enters the nasal passages or in general the person's airways. That is, if during the flowering of ragweed the patient is sent to the region where this phenomenon does not exist, then an allergic rhinitis will not occur.

Symptoms of this condition are very simple and easily distinguishable:

  • itching in the nose and eyes;
  • nasal congestion, difficulty breathing - this symptom is short-lived and has nothing to do with the usual( viral / infectious) rhinitis;
  • tear;
  • frequent sneezing;
  • sleepiness.

Note: even after careful removal of accumulated mucus in the nasal passages( blotting out or rinsing), the stuffiness does not disappear.

Various medications can be used to alleviate the condition - antihistamines are available on the market in a wide range, but for allergic rhinitis, special sprays will be the most effective:

  1. First, the sprays act localized and instantly relieve the patient's condition.
  2. Secondly, sprays are comfortable to carry around and use even in the environment of people at work.

Spray Treatment

The use of sprays is considered to be the most effective method of dealing with an allergic rhinitis. It is necessary to "remove" the allergen / irritant and only then it will be possible to achieve optimal results. But sometimes it's impossible to do - do not change the same residence because of the ragweed blossom once a year! For such patients, sprays have been developed that will help cope with the unpleasant symptoms of the disease in question.

Steroid / hormonal agents

The most effective drugs are glucocorticosteroids, which will help to quickly cure a runny nose in an adult. Sprays on this basis can help almost instantly after inserting them into the nasal passages. One injection means will be enough to ease the condition for 6-8 hours.

The most common steroid sprays for the treatment of an allergic rhinitis( a list of the names of the most effective agents):

  • Fliksonase. Has not only anti-allergic, but also anti-inflammatory effect - this is important, because even if the condition is considered, inflammation of the nasal mucosa will be present. Produces Fliksonase in special bottles with a dispenser - when using a clearly defined dose of the drug, therefore there can not be an accidental overdose.
  • Avamis. A drug similar in its effect to Fliksonase, but its effect occurs only after 6-8 hours, whereas the above-described spray against allergic rhinitis has an antiallergic effect within 2 hours after injection into the nasal passages. Avamis can cause side effects - excessive dryness of the mucosa, increased thirst and nosebleeds.
  • Nasonex. A steroid drug that can be used to treat allergic rhinitis and in pediatric patients. It is necessary to do once a day 2-3 injections in each nasal passage - this is enough to ease your condition for a day.

Your doctor will help you choose the spray that best suits you for efficiency and price.

Antihistamines / non-hormonal means

Allergodyl spray from non-hormonal sprays with allergic rhinitis is the most effective.

Such a group of medicines can be used long before the onset of an allergic rhinitis. For example, with hay fever( seasonal allergic rhinitis), the patient always knows at what time the first signs of the condition in question will appear. For 2-4 weeks you can start using antihistamines - the body will strengthen immunity and prepare for the "invasion" of allergens. As a rule, non-hormonal drugs are presented in the form of tablets, but with an allergic rhinitis the spray "Allergodil" showed the greatest efficiency.

  • vasoconstrictors act symptomatically and do not have a therapeutic effect;
  • can not be used in the treatment of young children and pregnant women.

  • sprays have a local effect, the drug does not penetrate into the blood - it shows the minimum number of components of the drug;
  • they can be used during pregnancy and during breast-feeding;
  • if necessary, the sprays can be used continuously( with a year-round allergic rhinitis) or simply long( when the therapy is carried out 3
    -6 consecutive months).

The dosage should be calculated by the attending physician, but even with the independent use of the drugs in question, one can not worry about the negative effects of drugs on overall health. It is enough to follow the instructions or to be guided by your own state of health. For example, some patients note that it is sufficient to inject the spray into the nasal passages once a day - the relief will be prolonged. And for some one-time use of the drug will not be enough - in this case it is advisable to do injections twice a day.
