Though I cant explain the actual logic behind this prescription I think he is treating you for high eosinophil count which can occur secondary to parasitic infection. For allergic rhinitis treatment would be antihistamine tablets and steroid nasal sprays. If your allergy is very severe then you can go for immunotherapy
