Is It A Cold Or Allergy? How You Can Tell
BOSTON (CBS) — Signs of spring are in the air but that’s not something you have to tell allergy sufferers.
This season has arrived a bit earlier than usual.
WBZ-TV’s Dr. Mallika Marshall has been seeing patients in her clinic for the past couple of weeks who are already complaining about their allergies.
Much of that is due to warmer temperatures. In fact, some areas are seeing tree pollen a month earlier than usual. Grass and flower pollen will soon follow.
Since it is still cold and flu season, how can you tell what is bothering you?
Dr. Marshall says there is some overlap in symptoms like nasal congest...

Allergy Medications During Pregnancy.
Abstract
Allergic diseases are common in women of childbearing age. Both asthma and atopic conditions may worsen, improve or remain the same during pregnancy. Primary care physicians commonly encounter women receiving multiple medications for pre-existing atopic conditions, who then become pregnant and require medication changes to avoid potential fetal injury or congenital malformations. Each medication should be evaluated; intranasal and inhaled steroids are relatively safe to continue during pregnancy (budesonide is the drug of choice), second-generation antihistamines of choice are cetirizine and loratadine, l...

P378 A case of the nerves tiotropium for treatment of resistant anaphylaxis with vocal cord dysfunction
A 17-year-old girl with an allergy to house dust mites presented with recurrent and frequent episodes (2-3 per week) of acute lip/tongue angioedema, diffuse rash, and respiratory distress with inspiratory stridor. Most episodes were triggered by exposures to scents from perfumes and soaps. Despite prophylactic treatment with inhaled and nasal fluticasone propionate and an oral regimen of daily diphenhydramine, cetirizine, and hydroxyzine, as well as on demand intramuscular epinephrine and multiple courses of oral steroids, she experienced over fifteen episodes requiring emergency room visits and four hospital admissions.

Popular, common allergy medication may prevent neuromyelitis optica relapses
(The Mount Sinai Hospital / Mount Sinai School of Medicine) The addition of cetirizine (the popular allergy medication sold under the brand name Zyrtec) to standard therapy is safe, well-tolerated, and may reduce relapses in patients with neuromyelitis optica (NMO), a rare and severe disease that causes inflammation and demyelination (damage to the myelin - the protective coating of nerve cells), primarily in the optic nerve (optic neuritis), spinal cord (myelitis), and brainstem.

Allergy skin testing
I was interested to read the article by Shtessel and colleagues1 published in the January 2018 issue of the Annals. Percutaneous allergen skin testing remains an established benchmark for diagnosing atopic disease. The reliability of skin testing depends greatly on the performance of allergen extracts used, methods used, and the presence of antihistamine medications. The authors aimed to determine the differential effect of cetirizine on 2 different concentrations of histamine control solution and 5 common allergens used for percutaneous skin testing.
