Nasal corticosteroid in the treatment of acute rhinosinusitis Review article

Main Article Content

Piotr Rapiejko

Abstract

Acute rhinosinusitis is a very common condition and mostly of viral origin. About 0.5–2% of the viral acute rhinosinusitis are complicated by a bacterial infection. Because of the inflammatory mechanisms of rhinitis and rhinosinusitis, nasal corticosteroids have been used for their treatment for decades. Scientific societies and expert groups recommend the use of nasal corticosteroids in a much broader range of indications (not only in allergic rhinitis and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps).
