Brief Summary   STUDY OF COMPARISON ON SAFETY AND EFFICACY OF FEXOFENADINE AND RUPATADINE AMONG PATIENTS WITH ALLERGIC RHINITIS.

Allergic Rhinitis is defined as having two or more symptoms of rhinorrhea, sneezing, nasal obstruction, anosmia/hyposmia and itching of nose during two or more consecutive days for more than 1 hour on most days. Allergic rhinitis is a common disease affecting0.8 to 39.7% of the world population.


A clinical history of rhinitis symptoms occurring in a temporal relationship to allergen exposure and documentation of sensitization to an environmental allergen are required for a diagnosis of allergic rhinitis. Although commonly seasonal due to elicitation by airborne pollens, it can be perennial in an environment of chronic exposure to house dust mites, animal danders, or insect (cockroach) products.Allergic Rhinitis is a common disease affecting 0.8 to 39.7 percent of the world depending on location.


OBJECTIVES

  • To monitor the adverse drug reactions for safety profile of the drugs.
  • To evaluate the Efficacy and cost effectiveness of the treatment groups.


MATERIAL AND METHODS


  • Venue of Study: Department of Pharmacology with collaboration of Department of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology at Rama medical college and hospital and research centre, Kanpur.
  • Type of study: The study will be comparative, observational, randomized, parallel group study.
  • Duration of the study: Research study will be for 18 months.
  • Sample size:142 patients of allergic rhinitis.
  • Methodology: Patients with symptoms of allergic rhinitis visiting ENT OPD fulfilling inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria are taken in the study.

An appropriate number of patients (150) will be enrolled and will be divided into two groups via randomised method. 

Group I will be administered drug Fexofenadine180mg OD for 7 days
