Abstract

Reading this article will reinforce the reader's awareness of the adverse effects of medications used for the treatment of rhinitis. Articles on therapy of rhinitis and reports of associated side effects were reviewed. A MEDLINE database using subject keywords was searched from 1992 through 1997. Pertinent articles were chosen. A distinction was made in the text between controlled studies and case reports. Antihistamines, decongestants, anticholinergic agents, and corticosteroids, alone or in combination are used in the treatment of rhinitis. Reported side effects include sedation, psychosis, impaired learning and memory, and cardiac arrhythmias. Rhinitis and its complications are important medical conditions. Adverse reactions are often difficult to diagnose and assess. Side effects may arise from the use of individual drugs or from drug combinations. There is insufficient cause to abandon these medications, but physicians must be mindful of the inherent risks of the drugs that they prescribe and of others that their patients may be taking without the physicians' knowledge or approval.

Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia that is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly due to stroke and thromboembolism. Here is the latest research.

Allergy and Asthma

Allergy and asthma are inflammatory disorders that are triggered by the activation of an allergen-specific regulatory t cell. These t cells become activated when allergens are recognized by allergen-presenting cells. Here is the latest research on allergy and asthma.

Arrhythmia

Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythms, which can be either too fast or too slow. They can result from abnormalities of the initiation of an impulse or impulse conduction or a combination of both. Here is the latest research on arrhythmias.
