Resumo

A prevalência das doenças alérgicas tem aumentado no seu global, nomeadamente a rinite alérgica.

A interligação desta patologia com outras doenças alérgicas, nomeadamente a asma, torna imperativo o seu diagnóstico, bem como a identificação das co-morbilidades e complicações associadas.

A mais recente classificação da doença valoriza a du-ração da sintomatologia e a interferência na qualidade de vida.

A estratégia terapêutica apresentada baseia-se em medidas de evicção, tratamento farmacológico, imunoterapia e em casos seleccionados para cirurgia.

Relativamente ao tratamento farmacológico, deve ser fei-to por “degraus”, de acordo com a gravidade da doença.

Abstract

Allergic disease prevalence including allergic rhinitis has increased.

It’s relationship with other allergic diseases including asthma makes imperative it’s diagnosis as well as co-morbidity identification and associated complications.

The most recent classification of the disease highlights the duration of symptoms and it’s interference in the quality of life.

The therapeutic strategy presented is based on eviction measures, pharmacological treatment, immunotherapy and, in selected cases, surgery.

Pharmacological treatment should be done by “steps” according to the severity of the disease.
