John Doe is a 35-year-old male with a history of allergic rhinitis. Skin prick testing confirmed sensitivity to grass and dust mites.
I have recommended environmental control measures and continuation of loratadine. I have also prescribed a nasal corticosteroid spray for better symptom control. Follow-up is arranged in 6 months to assess response to treatment.
