- Allergen Immunotherapy essentially switches off allergy.
- Allergen immunotherapy is the closest medication we have for a “cure” for allergy, reducing the severity of the symptoms and also allowing a significant reduction for medication for many allergy sufferers.
- It involves the regular administration of gradually increasing doses of allergen extracts in a controlled manner over a period of years.
- Immunotherapy can be given as drops/ spray under the tongue ( sublingual) / can be given as an injection usually once per month.
- Talk to our doctor about whether this form of treatment is appropriate for you.
