Abstract:
Allergy and asthma prevalence vary across different subsets of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis. In this article, the authors investigate the management of allergy and asthma within populations of patients with aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease, allergic fungal rhinosinusitis, and central compartment atopic disease. Topical steroids, nasal rinses, and endoscopic sinus surgery are frequently employed in the management of nasal polyposis. Further, other causes of upper and lower airway inflammation like allergy and asthma should be considered in the overall treatment plan in order to optimize outcomes.

Asthma: Pathogenesis and Management
Asthma is classified as allergic and non-allergic. Allergens such as dust mites, pollen, and pet dander trigger allergic asthma, while factors like cold air, intense emotions, or exercise can induce non-allergic asthma.

Additionally, environmental and genetic factors play crucial roles in determining an individual's susceptibility to asthma and the severity of their condition.

Antiasthma Drugs: Mast Cell Stabilizers and Anti-IgE Drugs
Mast cell stabilizers, such as cromolyn (also known as sodium cromoglycate) and nedocromil (Tilade), are effective drugs in asthma management. These stabilizers hinder histamine release by skillfully obstructing the activation of mast cells and other cellular entities. Notably, they navigate this task without...
