Popis: | In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the prevalence of diseases of the nose and paranasal sinuses. Inflammatory diseases of the mucous membrane nasal cavities (rhinitis) are most commonly characterized as a syndrome in which the patient experiences some combination of persistent nasal symptoms, including rhinorrhea, sneezing, nasal congestion, itching and burning in the nasal cavity. Among the chronic forms of rhinitis, allergic rhinitis occupies a large place along with vasomotor, infectious, hypertrophic, catarrhal and atrophic rhinitis. Allergic rhinitis is a significant social and medico-economic problem, since it significantly reduces the quality of life of patients and requires significant treatment costs. This nosology is found in the practice of doctors of all specialties, however, the correct diagnosis and the appointment of adequate therapy can take many months and years. Currently, the concept of “common airways” is widely discussed, which demonstrates the close relationship between allergic rhinitis and bronchial asthma and proves that the inflammatory response can be supported and enhanced by interrelated mechanisms. Therefore, patients with allergic rhinitis should be examined for the presence of bronchial asthma. In turn, patients with bronchial asthma need to diagnose allergic rhinitis, and treatment should be aimed at suppressing allergic inflammation in both the upper and lower respiratory tract. This article discusses modern diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to patients with these diseases, which make it possible to efficiently and timely identify allergic rhinitis and initiate appropriate adequate treatment. The article also discusses the feasibility of using combined therapy with levocetirizine and montelukast in the above nosologies. |
