Treating allergic rhinitis through better patient management
The Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America estimates that 50 million Americans suffer from allergic rhinitis, which includes hay fever and seasonal or perennial indoor/outdoor nasal allergies. These conditions are thought to affect up to 30% of adults and 40% of children, according to reports from the American College of Asthma Allergy & Immunology. This represents a marked increase over past decades; in the 1940s, hay fever was estimated to affect only 1% of the U. S. population.
