Description

<p>In patients with allergic rhinitis, a common therapy is oral antihistamine, but control of daily local symptoms is also important. Although topical nasal spray is also commonly used, it can sometimes leak onto and settle on the bottom of the nasal cavity. On the other hand, administration by nebulizer may enable the delivery and attachment of the small particles of the medicine to the nasal mucosa, making drug delivery effective for allergic rhinitis or rhinosinusitis. This method typically uses topical decongestants and steroids. When this treatment is used in the outpatient setting, the purpose is to wash the mucous membrane to compensate for the use of home medications. In the future, provision of a portable mesh-type nebulizer may enable easier use. The purpose of topical nasal therapy is to maintain physiologic function or to decrease the pathophysiologic problem. The proper administration of local and systemic medications for allergic rhinitis needs to be investigated.</p>
