Before And After

This study aimed to investigate the effects of aromatherapy oil inhalation on symptoms, quality of life, sleep quality, and fatigue level among adults with perennial allergic rhinitis (PAR). Fifty-four men and women aged between 20 and 60 were randomized to inhale aromatherapy oil containing essential oil from sandalwood, geranium, andRavensaraor almond oil (the placebo) for 5 minutes twice daily for 7 days. PAR symptoms determined by Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS), the Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (RQLQ), sleep quality by Verran Synder-Halpern (VSH) scale, and fatigue level by Chalder Fatigue Scale (CFS) were assessed before and after intervention period. Compared with the placebo, the experimental group showed significant improvement in TNSS, especially in nasal obstruction. The aromatherapy group also showed significantly higher improvements in total score of RQLQ and CFS. These findings indicate that inhalation of certain aromatherapy oil helps relieve PAR symptoms, improve rhinitis-specific quality of life, and reduce fatigue in patients with PAR. In conclusion, inhalation of aromatherapy essential oil may have potential as an effective intervention to alleviate PAR.

Allergic rhinitis affects more than 20% and is responsible for very high direct and indirect costs. Nasal corticosteroids are the principle pharmaceutical option for the treatment of allergic rhinitis. They are more effective than all other therapeutic options and in addition to improving symptoms of allergic rhinitis they also improve quality of life in patients suffering from allergic rhinitis. There are many intranasal corticosteroids approved for the treatment of allergic rhinitis in pediatric and adult populations. Ciclesonide has shown so far a very good safety and pharmacokinetic profile and is effective for treatment of symptoms in both seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis. This review summarizes the studies describing these effects of intranasal ciclesonide.

Selection Of

Allergic rhinitis (AR) is one of the most common diseases affecting adults and children. AR is often a part of a systemic inflammatory process associated with other inflammatory conditions, including allergic conjunctivitis (Ac), rhinosinusitis and asthma. Undertreated AR impairs quality of life, exacerbates asthma and is a major factor in asthma development. There is a strong recommendation that clinicians recommend intranasal steroids (INS) for patients with a clinical diagnosis of AR whose symptoms affect their quality of life. All modern INS are minimally bioavailable and similar with regard to efficacy and safety at the recommended starting dose. however, differences in patient preference and safety of use during pregnancy may contribute to primary care physicians’ selection of an INS therapy for their patients.
