Efficacy and anti-inflammatory analysis of glucocorticoid, antihistamine and leukotriene receptor antagonist in the treatment of allergic rhinitis
BACKGROUND: There are many adverse reactions in the treatment of allergic rhinitis (AR) mainly with conventional drugs. Leukotriene receptor antagonists, glucocorticoids and nasal antihistamines can all be used as first-line drugs for AR, but the clinical effects of the three drugs are not clear. AI...

Sumario: | BACKGROUND: There are many adverse reactions in the treatment of allergic rhinitis (AR) mainly with conventional drugs. Leukotriene receptor antagonists, glucocorticoids and nasal antihistamines can all be used as first-line drugs for AR, but the clinical effects of the three drugs are not clear. AIM: To examine the impact of glucocorticoids, antihistamines, and leukotriene receptor antagonists on individuals diagnosed with AR, specifically focusing on their influence on serum inflammatory indexes. METHODS: The present retrospective study focused on the clinical data of 80 patients diagnosed and treated for AR at our hospital between May 2019 and May 2021. The participants were categorized into the control group and the observation group. The control group received leukotriene receptor antagonists, while the observation group was administered glucocorticoids and antihistamines. Conducted an observation and comparison of the symptoms, physical sign scores, adverse reactions, and effects on serum inflammatory indexes in two distinct groups of patients, both before and after treatment. RESULTS: Subsequent to treatment, the nasal itching score, sneeze score, runny nose score, nasal congestion score, and physical signs score exhibited notable discrepancies (P < 0.05), with the observation group demonstrating superior outcomes compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The interleukin (IL)-6, IL-10, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, Soluble Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1, Leukotriene D4 after treatment were significantly different and the observation group It is better than the control group, which is statistically significant (P < 0.05). Following the intervention, the incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group, including symptoms such as nasal dryness, discomfort in the throat, bitter taste in the mouth, and minor erosion of the nasal mucosa, was found to be 7.5%. This rate was significantly lower compared to the control group, which reported an incidence of 27.5%. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Glucocorticoids and antihistamines have obvious therapeutic effects, reduce serum inflammatory index levels, relieve symptoms and signs of patients, and promote patients' recovery, which can provide a reference for clinical treatment of AR. |
