Abstract

This article represents the results of research of low-frequency ultrasound with levocetirizine in patients with acute infectious rhinitis (AIR). Low-frequency ultrasound therapy with levocetirizin effectively reduces rhinitis symptoms (nasal obstruction, sneezing, rhinorrhea) duration, demonstrates anti-inflammatory activity and reduces of topical decongestants requirement in AIR patients. Effectiveness of this therapy was estimated by objective and subjective methods.
