Allergies affect more than 50 million people each year in the U.S.1 They cause poor sleep, lost school days in children2, and lost productivity in the work place.3 And while over-the-counter (OTC) drugs can provide relief from allergic symptoms, they don’t actually make the disease go away, plus their side effects can be just as bad as your allergy symptoms! Why treat the symptoms when you can work toward a potential cure?
The first step toward moving away from too many unnecessary medications is to discover what’s causing your symptoms. Are you allergic to your pets, to mold, or to tree or grass pollen in the air? The answer can be found with allergy skin testing. The results of your test are then reviewed by a board certified allergist, who will then discuss with you your treatment options. If your allergy is severe or year-round, or if the symptoms are debilitating or diminishing your quality of life, the allergist and you may choose to start immunotherapy. Allergy shots are the best long-term treatment plan.4
Most people who start allergy shots say they’re well worth the long-lasting allergy relief, and allergy shots ARE a natural solution. They're custom-made with your specific allergen so that your immune system can develop a resistance and no longer react. Your allergist will discuss how long it'll take before you see results, but allergy shots are worth the commitment. Make an appointment with us today!
