Relieving Drugs
* Antihistamines classic. Relieve allergy symptoms by blocking the release of histamine, which causes inflammation of the mucous membranes and allergic symptoms, but is incompatible with driving, operating machinery and alcohol because they cause motor incoordination, less reaction rate, confusion and sedation. They are applied directly to the nasal mucosa and conjunctiva with a small drug amount. For example azelastine.
* Advanced Antihistamines. This new family of drugs that is enriched continuously with new products such as desloratadine, do not readily cross the blood-brain barrier, so it produces less sedating than conventional, and cause less adverse effects on vision, urine and respiratory mucous.
* Corticosteroids. These oral, injectable or inhalable synthetic hormones, reduce inflammation of the nasal passages and alleviate symptoms in a short time. They do not cause significant side effects, provided they are used under medical supervision and in the doses and periods indicated.
