Abstract

Allergic Rhinitis (AR) is a non-infectious epidemic which can be prevented and controlled effectively with good quality of life in compliant children following the conventional inhalational therapies diligently. Paediatric Rhino-conjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (PRQLQ), devised by Professor Elizabeth Juniper is a validated questionnaire consisting of 23 parameters in 5domains. It is one of the best possible ways to judge the clinical severity and improvement in the affected children.
