The only pathogenetic and effective method of treatment of patients with house dust mites induced allergic rhinitis and atopic bronchial asthma according to positions of evidencebased medicine is allergenspecific immunotherapy (ASIT) with house dust mites (Dermatophagoides pteronissinus, Dermatophagoides farinea) allergens.
