Non-Interventional Study Comparing Treatment Satisfaction in Patients Treated with Antihistamines

Background and objective: Allergic rhinitis and urticaria are common allergic disorders that may affect approximately 15% of people at some time in their lives. Antihistamines are the most widely used therapeutic interventions for these disorders but the newer generation agents have differing pharmacokinetic characteristics that may result in different patient satisfaction and preferences. The objective of this study was to investigate patients’ and physicians’ satisfaction with their current antihistamine treatment for allergic disease.
