This 1970s advertisement for allergy medication features a cat lounging among a collection of allergens and comes from the July 1977 issue of the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology. This issue can be found in Box 8 of the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology (AAAAI) Records (call number UWM Mss 139) at the UWM Archives.

According to the updated practice parameter on rhinitis: "Seasonal allergic rhinitis symptoms generally do not develop until 2 to 7 years of age... The prevalence of seasonal allergic rhinitis is higher in children and adolescents, whereas perennial allergic rhinitis has a higher prevalence in adults."

IgE testing (skin is typically preferred over blood) is recommended for patients with a clinical diagnosis of AR who don’t respond to empiric treatment, when the diagnosis is uncertain, or when knowledge of the causative allergen is needed to target therapy.

“Rhinitis is characterized by 1 or more of the following symptoms: nasal congestion, rhinorrhea (anterior and posterior), sneezing, and itching. Rhinitis should be classified by etiology as allergic or non-allergic and differentiated from conditions that mimic symptoms of rhinitis.”

Approximately 20% of the population is affected by allergic rhinitis (AR). AR, also known as “hay fever,” is an IgE-mediated hypersensitivity reaction resulting from airborne allergens either seasonally (pollens from trees, weeds, and grasses) or perennially (dust mites, cockroaches, animal dander, fungi, and molds).
