Sažetak

Treatment of allergic diseases is based on the direct impact of the three main target areas: mast cell stabilization, preventing the release of mediators, and specific immune response. It is essential to prevent exposure to the causative allergen. Treatment is applied systemically or topically. Local treatment is preferred in many allergic skin diseases and asthma, when it is effective. Associated inflammatory components must also be treated, especially in the treatment of asthma, and not just with symptomatic agents. There is also anti-inflammatory and symptomatic treatment. Corticosteroids and antihistamines are the most commonly used drugs. Some subchapters list the benefits of individual drugs for organ systems, by their generic names. Mast cell stabilizers, β-agonists, antihistamines, leukotriene antagonists, quinine antagonists, immunotherapy and omalizumab (anti-IgE antibody) are essential in the treatment of allergy.
