Abstract

Allergic rhinitis remains an important problem that affects people of all ages. Although allergic rhinitis is considered a trivial disease by the public and medical community alike, the evidence of allergic rhinitis as a risk factor to the development of associated diseases such as asthma, sinusitis, otitis media with effusion, and nasal polyps is better appreciated. Pathophysiology and current therapy of allergic rhinitis is reviewed.
