We can distinguish symptomatic and causative pharmacologic treatment of allergic rhinitis. It is used topic (eye drops, nasal spray) and systemic (antihistamines and antileukotriene drugs) for a relief of the symptoms. High effective are local combination drugs. It is recommended to prefer nasal steroids alone or in combination with local antihistamines to systemic antihistamines. Allergen-specific immunotherapy represents the only causative treatment of allergic diseases which is able to decrease the incidence of asthma. An appropriate choice of dominant allergen is a possible way for polysensitized people.
