What Is The Treatment For Allergic Rhinitis?
Dear Doctor,
My daughter is 8 yrs old. She is having allergic rhinicitis. I consulted a paediatric pulmonologist in bangalore and she is under medication since 2 weeks (2 weeks back I had consulted him). As of now she has improved 50%. But still she coughs very hard...(we can hear the sound)...pls let me know whether giving the medicines (inhalers/syrup) would be good for a long time for the above ...thankx a lot

Thanks for asking in healthcaremagic forum
I appreciate your concern for your daughter. The best way to prevent allergic rhinitis is to prevent exposure to allergen after finding it. Otherwise medications like antihistaminics and mast cell stabilizers help a lot with least/no long term effects. So, you need not worry. You can promote her to go for yoga and respiratory exercises. All the best. For rest please consult your doctor only.
