Among the perennial rhinitides three forms should be distinguished because of therapeutic and prophylactic consequences: allergic, nonallergic eosinophilic (NARES syndrome) and nonallergic non-eosinophilic (vasomotor) rhinitis. Their distinction is based on history as well as on clinical criteria and allergy tests, necessitating an optimal collaboration between the general practitioner, the otorhinolaryngologist and the clinical immunologist. The therapeutic approach to the three forms is outlined.
