Quality of life and use of medication in chronic allergic and non-allergic rhinitis patients

In contrast to the significant number of studies indicating the impairment of QoL in AR, the degree of impairment in Quality of Life (QoL) in NAR remains underexposed. Again in contrast to AR, almost no evidence-based therapies for NAR patients exist. We assessed QoL in NAR compared to healthy controls and AR patients as positive controls and investigated whether the use of treatment in patients with NAR and AR had effect on QoL.
