Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Efficacy of treatment in persistent allergic rhinitis based on nasal symptoms score

    The mean variability of nasal symptoms score observed between visit 1 and visit 2 will be used as the primary endpoint of clinical efficacy.

    7 days

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Safety will be evaluated by the adverse events occurrences

    7 days

Study Arms (2)

Desloratadine + Prednisolone

EXPERIMENTAL

Desloratadine(0.5 mg/ml) Associated With Prednisolone (4 mg/ml) Oral Solution once a day - bottle 1 + placebo 2 times a day - bottles 2 and 3.

Drug: Desloratadine + Prednisolone

Dexchlorpheniramine + Betamethasone

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Dexchlorpheniramine (0.4 mg/ml) + Betamethasone (0.05 mg/ml) three times a day - bottles 1, 2 and 3.

Drug: Dexchlorpheniramine + Betamethasone

Interventions

Children (2 to 5 years): 2.5 ml 3 times a day Children (6 to 12 years): 5.0 ml 3 times a day

Dexchlorpheniramine + Betamethasone

Children (2 to 5 years): 2.5 ml 3 times a day Children (6 to 12 years): 5.0 ml 3 times a day
