Rhinitis is one of the most common illnesses seen by doctors in the community. Typical symptoms include sneezing, nasal congestion, runny nose and/or watery eyes – very similar to a persistent cold. There are two types of rhinitis: Seasonal and Perennial.

Seasonal Allergies
Seasonal allergic rhinitis, or hay fever, occurs at the same time each year, usually in response to airborne pollen.
Trees release pollen in the spring, grass in the late spring and early summer, and ragweed in late summer and autumn. Sensitivity to pollen usually increases with exposure – causing allergies to worsen at the end of the season.
Symptoms can change with the weather – for example, windy days can inflame your allergies. Whereas, rain tends to clear the air, making you feel more comfortable.
To address the problem of seasonal allergies, AERIUS® Dual Action 12 Hour was formulated specifically to relieve your most bothersome allergy symptom: nasal congestion caused by airborne pollens. This new formula combines the power of decongestant relief with an antihistamine, all in one tablet. Don’t let allergies keep you inside this summer.

Perennial Allergies
Perennial allergic rhinitis affects people all year round because their allergens – house dust, dust mites, dog or cat dander, molds, etc. – are part of their daily environment.
Unlike seasonal rhinitis, perennial rhinitis tends to worsen in the winter due to increased time spent indoors. Many sufferers find relief with antihistamines. AERIUS® is designed to provide fast, effective and long-lasting relief from allergy symptoms, making it a good option for those who face allergens year-round.
