Abstract: Although various treatment options are available for rhinitis, research on the treatment and medication regimen for patients suffering from pregnancy rhinitis is relatively scant. In pregnant patients, the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of drugs differ significantly from those in non-pregnant patients. Some drugs may cross the placental barrier and cause adverse effects on the embryo, fetus, and even in the newborn. Therefore, the choice of medical regimen for patients with pregnancy rhinitis needs careful consideration. Corticosteroids, decongestants, antihistamines, chromones, and anticholinergics are commonly used for treating rhinitis, and it is important to study their efficacy and safety in patients with pregnancy rhinitis. In this article, we present research update on pregnancy rhinitis, with a focus on evaluating the current clinical treatment and medication regimen for patients with this condition.

Key words: Pregnancy rhinitis, Diagnosis, Medication during pregnancy, Treatment plan
