| Popis: | The authors presented an overview of the existing data on inhalation therapy with antibacterial drugs in acute rhinosinusitis and exacerbation of chronic rhinosinusitis in children. The overview includes general information about the etiology and features of the course of acute rhinosinusitis. It also contains indications for systemic and topical antibiotic therapy in acute rhinosinusitis specified in the Russian clinical guidelines. The advantages of using a combination preparation of thiampheni-col and N-acetylcysteine by inhalation therapy for acute rhinosinusitis in children and adults are considered separately. A clinical case of a 15-year-old female patient with complaints of persistent rhinitis over the past 4-5 years is discussed. Historical information: a patient had a runny nose over the last 4-5 years: persistent, viscous nasal discharge with moderate nasal congestion. Nasal symptoms worsened with episodes of acute respiratory illness, and nasal discharge became mucopurulent. The child was preliminarily diagnosed with chronic rhinosinusitis (incomplete remission), moderate course. To reduce the severity of the symptoms of the disease, which were present at the time of examination, the following were recommended: daily one-to-two irrigation of the nasal cavity with slightly hypertonic (1.5-3%) solutions of sea water, followed by a toilet of the nasal cavity; in case of episodes of colds with the appearance of mucopurulent secretions, inhalation therapy in a pulsating mode of the inhaler with a solution of thiamphenicol and N-acetylcysteine at a dose of 500 mg once a day (in the first half of the day) for the next 10 days and further; the use of a nasal spray of mometasone furoate, 200 mcg per day during inhalation therapy for another 3 weeks. At the follow-up examination after 10 days of treatment, the patient reported a significant decrease in the severity of nasal symptoms, which coincided with an improvement in the rhinoscopic status. It can be concluded that the use of topical antibacterial drugs by inhalation therapy for acute rhinosinusitis, despite all its advantages, is not an equivalent substitute for systemic antibiotic therapy in the treatment of severe and especially complicated forms of the disease. The inhalation therapy is recommended in the presence of indications for systemic antibiotic therapy, since it is an auxiliary method of treatment, the action of which is aimed at enhancing the effect of systemic antibiotics. |
