Mostly triggered by pollen (hay fever), allergic rhinitis can also be caused by house dust mites.
Allergic rhinitis is characterized by :
Medicinal treatment is primarily represented by H1 antihistamines, which are the first-line treatment for allergic rhinitis, accounting for over 90% of prescriptions.
Hay fever (or allergic rhinitis) causes symptoms virtually identical to those of viral colds. It can be very debilitating at certain times of the year, or even all year round in the case of perennial allergic rhinitis. Certain medications designed to relieve hay fever are available without prescription.
Rhinitis is said to be intermittent if it lasts less than 4 weeks. It is said to be persistent if it lasts more than 4 consecutive weeks.
Food allergy is an immune system reaction to the ingestion of a particular food. Certain substances contained in the food are identified as dangerous by the body, leading to a chain reaction that can sometimes be life-threatening.
In France, the number of allergy cases among children has doubled over the last five years, reaching 6-8% of children under twelve. A growing number of these allergies are caused by certain foods. These food allergies should not be confused with food intolerances, which are more widespread but less spectacular. Infants can be affected, for example by cow's milk protein allergy.
When a child has an allergic background (hay fever, asthma, eczema, etc.), it is essential to consult a doctor at the first sign of an unusual reaction following ingestion of a food. This precautionary measure can prevent the risk of serious complications.

Allergy treatment is based on three pillars: avoidance (eliminating or reducing exposure to the allergen), symptomatic drug treatment with antihistamines or corticosteroids, and desensitization (sometimes possible), which makes the person tolerant to the allergen.
In the acute phase of respiratory allergies, oral antihistamines are used, in tablet form for adults and syrup form for children aged 2 and over.
This antihistamine is combined with local treatments such as eye drops or nasal sprays (antihistamines or local corticoids). If asthma develops, a short-acting bronchodilator (Ventolin) is used to open up the bronchial tubes rapidly. In some patients, background treatment of asthma may be necessary.
Acute treatment for food allergies and allergies to hymenoptera venoms depends on the severity of the reaction
For minor local reactions to insect bites, a dermocorticoid cream may be prescribed.
The hay fever you've been suffering from for years is not inevitable. Whatever the type of allergic rhinitis, symptomatic medical treatment involves courses ofantihistamines or nasal corticosteroid sprays, combined or not. Ventolin may be prescribed for coughs.
In the case of food allergy, the main course of treatment is the avoidance of the food or foods containing the allergenic substances.
