Previous studies have shown that <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">AR<\/jats:styled-content> can impair cognitive functions, especially during longer\u2010lasting tasks. Other reports suggest negative effects on psychomotor functions such as driving, but no clear evidence has been presented yet.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Objectives<\/jats:title><jats:p>Primary objective was to determine the effect of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">AR<\/jats:styled-content> per se on actual driving performance and compare it with the effects of treated <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">AR<\/jats:styled-content>.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Nineteen patients with documented <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">AR<\/jats:styled-content> history underwent a unique and validated 1\u2010h on\u2010the\u2010road driving test outside the pollen season. In a 4\u2010leg repeated measures design, patients underwent a nasal provocation test with either pollen or inactive control prior to the driving test. In the three conditions with pollen provocation, patients were pretreated with either cetirizine 10\u00a0mg, fluticasone furoate 27.5\u00a0\u03bcg, or placebo to alleviate the provoked <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">AR<\/jats:styled-content> symptoms.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The driving performance of patients when symptomatic and not treated was significantly impaired compared to the placebo condition. When engaging in a secondary memory task during driving, their performance deteriorated further. The magnitude of impairment was relevant and comparable to that seen at a blood alcohol level of 0.05%, the legal limit in many countries. Treatment of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">AR<\/jats:styled-content> symptoms partially counteracted the effect of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">AR<\/jats:styled-content> on driving.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Untreated <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">AR<\/jats:styled-content> can impair driving ability and put patients at risk.
