Specific immunotherapy for allergic rhinitis in children / 中国实用儿科杂志

ABSTRACT

At present,allergen-specific immunotherapy(AIT)is the only treatment method that can change the natural course of allergic rhinitis in children. While achieving good clinical efficacy,it reduces the dosage of drugs for AR children,improves the quality of life,prevents AR progression to asthma,and reduces new allergens. New methods and techniques for AIT are designed to shorten the time to reach immune tolerance,improve the compliance of children,enhance the safety of treatment,and reduce the treatment burden as much as possible. Here,we review the clinical progress of AIT in AR children.
