Absolute number of patients suffering from AB in Czech. Rep. Number of patients Period
THE MOST IMPORTANT ALERGENES
Pollen situation of„Alnus glutinosa“ in the Europe 1. DEC. 2. DEC. 3. DEC. JANUARY FEBRUARY MARCH APRIL MAY
DIAGNOSIS 2. CLINICAL FEATURES 1. ANAMNESIS 4. ALLERGOLOGICAL TESTS 3. LABORATORY TESTS
THERAPY life style own pharmacoterapy specific imunotherapy preventive antiinflammatoric symptomatic
Groups of drugs: • sympatomimetics • anticholinergics • corticosteroides • methylxantines • antileucotriens • antihistamines
Antiasthmatics with rapid effect: • β-mimetics • - nonselective - adrenaline, isoproterenol, orciprenaline, ephedrine • - selective -metaproterenol, albuterol, salbutamol, • terbutalin, fenoterol • => more effective via inhalation then per os administration • =>increase of cAMP • Parasympatolytics • ipratropium
Methylxantines: • theophylline - myotropic influence via inhibition of phosphodiesterase and via influence on the adenosine receptors A2 • =>bronchodilatation • => prevention from bronchoconstriction caused by histamine, cholinergic agonists (metacholine) or exertion. • Aminophylline = theophylline + ethylendiamine
Drugs used for prevention and maintained treatment: cromoglycate sodium • inhibition of degranulation of mastocytes after exposition to specific agents • full effect after 4-6 weeks • nedocromil • similar to cromoglycate in mechanism • of action
β2-mimetics with long-term effect: • via inhalation salmeteroland formoterol • via per os ( tabl, sirup)klenbuterol, prokaterol, salbutamol Teophylline with prolonged releasing
Antileucotriens = Leucotriene Receptor Antagonists (LTRAs): • zafirlukast • zileuton • montelukast
Corticosteroids: • beklometasone • budesonide • flunisolide • fluticasone • triamcinolone • potent antiinflammatory effect • decrease of number of inflammatory potent cells • inhibition of bronchoconstrictory mechanisms • direct relaxation of smooth muscle cells
Antihistamines: • astemizole(Hismanal) • clemastine • terphenadine • ketotifen (Zaditen) • reversible competitive antagonists of H-receptors
Inhibitors of calcium channels: • verapamile (Isoptin) • nifedipine • others • inhibition of calcium influx => inhibition of contraction of smooth muscle cells • induction of bronchodilatation • used experimentaly
