Lasting Relief from
Seasonal Allergies
What is Immunotherapy?
Allergen immunotherapy is a form of treatment aimed at decreasing a patient's sensitivity to substances called allergens. Immunotherapy involves introducing increasing amounts of an allergen to a patient over several months.
Immunotherapy can be very effective in greatly decreasing, or even eliminating, the symptoms of allergies. Up to 85% receive a complete cure or a noticeable reduction in allergy symptoms.
How It Works
For adults and children over the age of 4,the process begins by testing the patient to determine which environmental (non-food) allergies to target. The testing is not painful. A drop of solution is placed onto the skin surface and the medication will absorb into the skin. After the test is performed, it takes about 15 minutes to develop. A positive test will appear as a raised, red bump on the skin.
The testing takes approximately 30 minutes – 15 minutes to administer and 15 minutes to register the results – so you don’t have to wait long to learn the cause of your allergies.
In order to achieve the most accurate test results, patients should discontinue any antihistamines, over-the-counter or prescription for 1 or 2 days prior to allergy testing.
Once testing is complete, patients will come to our office for an injection once a month for 10 months.
