ABSTRACT

Chronic polypous rhinosinusitis (CPR) is characterized by refractory to drug therapy and a high potential for recurrence after surgical treatment. One of the important factors limiting the effectiveness of drug therapy of CPR, in particular intranasal glucocorticosteroids (inGCSs), is the insufficient level of adherence to treatment of patients with CPR. OBJECTIVE: Generalization of data on the significance and ways to increase adherence to treatment of patients with CPR. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Materials of scientific publications included in the Cochrane Library, Russian Science Citation Index, MEDLINE, PubMed information bases were used as a data source. The material was selected based on the following keywords "chronic rhinosinusitis", "nasal polyps", "intranasal glucocorticosteroids", "adherence to treatment". RESULTS: Despite the fact that inGCSs are one of the main pathogenetically justified methods of treating CPR, their use is limited by many factors, one of which is the level of patient compliance with the treatment regimen. CONCLUSION: Improving adherence to treatment is one of the important reserves for increasing the effectiveness of drug therapy for chronic polypous rhinosinusitis.
