[Allergic rhinopathy: diagnosis and current therapy]
Abstract
After discussing the causes and immunopathology of allergic rhinitis, the authors describe the most frequently used diagnostic tests, confirming the validity of PRICK TEST, PRIST, RAST, and TNP. As for treatment, they stress the special importance of vaccines for specific therapy and of drugs such as ketotifen and sodium cromoglycate for aspecific rhinitis and for those forms which have not benefited from vaccination.
