説明

Corticosteroids are very effective drugs for the treatment of allergic diseases. For the treatment of bronchial asthma, inhaled corticosteroids are widely used for controlling airway inflammation, and short-acting beta 2 adrenergic receptor agonists are used for the relief of asthma attack. In the treatment of atopic dermatitis, topical corticosteroids are predominant and tacrolimus ointment is also available. In the treatment of allergic rhinitis, second-generation antihistamines are widely used for nasal symptoms in mild to moderate cases, but nasal drops or spray of corticosteroids is also recommended. To overcome the allergic disease, it might be important to treat active allergic inflammation sufficiently by using effective drugs such as corticosteroids to lead to remission, and to keep the remission for a longer period by avoiding risk factors and maintaining basic care.
