Based on my own experience, I believe that rhinitis exacerbates asthmatic symptoms. I have very mild asthma which is principally (and only occasionally) induced by strenuous exercise, and I have severe allergies which have been controlled through shots. I also use Rhinocort and have HEPA filters in the house because we have cats and I am allergic to them. Had a bad allergy attack in Oregon (probably from Juniper), and needed Ventolin . . .
