I suffer from chronic rhinitis, allergy to nuts, maybe sulfites and NSAIDS, I am looking for a better drug solution than prednisone, over the counter antihistamines only work if my symptoms are mild but they dont stop the hives the asthma, the swelling when i have inadvertently eaten the wrong thing
Welcome to Chat Doctor. I went through the history you have provided here. It seems from the history that you are having chronic rhinitis, probably secondary to allergy. Allergic conditions tend to run for a long time, and they require treatment for a long time. The treatment is done by the use of anti-allergic Chat Doctor.  Steroids are reserved for acute exacerbation only. Do consult your doctor for examination to assess the severity of your condition and treatment accordingly. Hope this is helpful to you. Do write back to me for further questions. Thank you for writing to us.
