چکیده مقاله:
Background: Antihistamines are the most common drugs used for treating allergic rhinitis. They, significantly, reduce nasal symptoms by blocking the action of a chemical cytokine called histamine. This study aimed to compare cetirizine and desloratadine's efficacy and adverse effects in children with allergic rhinitis.Method: This randomized single-blinded clinical trial was conducted on ۴۰۰ children with allergic rhinitis, aged ۶-۱۲ between February and September ۲۰۲۲. The patients were randomized to receive cetirizine or desloratadine for four weeks. We recorded the symptoms and adverse effects at the baseline and four weeks after starting the intervention.Results: A total of ۲۴۸ patients completed the study: ۱۰۹ patients (۴۷ female, ۶۲ male) in the cetirizine group and ۱۳۹ patients (۵۳ female, ۸۶ male) in the desloratadine group. The scores related to symptoms of allergic rhinitis before starting the drugs and after ۴-week therapy were not significantly different between the two treatment groups (p= ۰.۱, p= ۰.۷, respectively). Cetirizine had more side effects than desloratadine in the treated patients (p = ۰.۰۲).Conclusion: This study showed that cetirizine and desloratadine improved symptoms of children with allergic rhinitis; however, there was no significant difference in the efficacy of these two drugs. Desloratadine caused fewer side effects in patients after ۴ weeks of treatment.
