Study Overview
Brief Summary
This study will be a prospective observational study of "real world" BDP nasal aerosol users with PAR, with or without seasonal allergic rhinitis (SAR). Subjects will respond to monthly online surveys regarding rhinitis control, concomitant medical conditions, concomitant (non-AR) medications, current AR therapy, and adverse events.

- •Age 12 years or greater at time of enrollment
- •Diagnosis of PAR for at least one year; and 2)a positive skin prick (ie, epicutaneous) or serum-specific IgE test within the past 2 years to a perennial allergen as appropriate for the location; and 3)PAR symptoms that are consistent with exposure to this allergen for at least one year

Intervention: Beclomethasone Dipropionate (BDP) Nasal Aerosol (Drug)
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Change in Rhinitis Control Assessment Test (RCAT) Score
Time Frame: Baseline and 6 months
The RCAT will be completed each month and uses a one-week recall period. This questionnaire has six items that ask about nasal and other allergy symptoms and the control of these symptoms. Each question is responded to on a scale of 1-5. The responses are summed to evaluate a total score. A higher score (22-30) indicates that symptoms are well controlled. A lower score (5-21) indicates that rhinitis symptoms are not well controlled.
Secondary Outcomes
- Change in the Abbreviated Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM-9) score(Baseline and 6 months)
- Change in the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire plus Classroom Impairment Questions: Allergy-specific (WPAI-CIQ-AS) score(Baseline and 6 months)
- Change in the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) score(Baseline and 6 months)
- Change in the Mini Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (MiniRQLQ) score(Baseline and 6 months)
- Change in overall healthcare utilization(Baseline and 6 months)
- Change in number of non-intranasal corticosteroids (INS) medications for allergic rhinitis (AR)(Baseline and 6 months)
