Abstract

Allergic rhinitis (AR) and urticaria affect a sizable portion of the population worldwide, resulting in reduced quality-of-life and productivity and increased healthcare costs.

Fexofenadine (FEX) is a non-sedating second-generation H₁ antihistamine with pronounced efficacy and a very good safety profile, used for the treatment of allergic diseases. In addition to its antihistaminic properties, FEX also has anti-inflammatory effects. FEX has a wide therapeutic window and is not associated with any sedative effects, even at higher than recommended doses.

There is a need for an integrated management system for AR and urticaria which includes safe and effective treatment options.

An ideal anti-allergic formulation should provide fast relief of symptoms and long-lasting effect without drowsiness. Data from randomized clinical trials show that FEX meets these criteria and is an effective treatment option with a favourable safety profile, improving the quality of life of patients suffering from AR and urticaria.

WAOjournal publishes research on the growth of allergy prevalence within the scope of single countries, country comparisons, and practical global issues and regulations, or threats to the allergy specialty. The Journal invites the submissions of all authors interested in publishing on current global problems in allergy, asthma, anaphylaxis, and immunology. Of particular interest are the immunological consequences of climate change and the subsequent systematic transformations in food habits and their consequences for the allergy/immunology discipline.
