Two Algorithms For Dx And Rx Of Allergic Rhinitis

For a great lecture on the fundamentals of rhinitis, see Resource (1) below. Here are some excerpts on treatment of allergic rhinitis:

 

Here are some excerpts from the algorithm for rhinitis from Resoure (3) below:

Here are excerpts of the algorithms of Resource (4) below:

See Reference (5) below for excellent help on using general and disease specific Quality of Life Measures for managing rhinitis.

And for the management of Non-allergic rhinitis, see Reference (6) below.
