Allergy immunotherapy

Allergy injections function similarly to vaccines. Your body develops immunity or tolerance to a specific allergen in response to injected amounts of the allergen given in steadily increasing dosages.

Drug challenges

A drug challenge is a test in which the allergist administers a small amount of a substance is gradually increasing dosages while examining you for a reaction. If you have a real or suspected allergy to a medicine, discontinue use.

Drug desensitization therapy

Desensitization is a process that modifies the immunological response to the drug and results in temporary tolerance, allowing the patient with a drug hypersensitivity reaction to continue receiving the prescription safely.

Dupixent

Dupixent works with your immune system to reduce inflammation that contributes to eczema, which may help lessen your uncontrolled moderate-to-severe eczema (atopic dermatitis) symptoms and give you significantly smoother skin.

Environmental allergy immunotherapy - subcutaneous (SCIT) and sublingual (SLIT)

Allergy shots, also known as subcutaneous immunotherapy (SCIT), have been used to treat allergies for over a century. They are the only type of treatment that alters the immune system. As a result, they keep new allergies and asthma from emerging and have long-term positive effects even when medication is finished.

Food allergy oral desensitization therapy

Oral immunotherapy, or OIT, helps people desensitize to the foods they are allergic to by ingesting little amounts of the allergen every day and gradually strengthening their body's resistance to the food.

Food allergy patch desensitization therapy

OIT is a method of desensitizing your body to allergens, allowing you to eat the meal without fear of an allergic reaction.

Immunoglobulin replacement

Immunoglobulin replacement therapy raises your antibody levels when they are low. This can aid in the battle against infection.

Inhaler/medical therapy

Inhalation treatment allows medications to be delivered directly into the airways. Inhaled medication administration devices are critical in treating obstructive lung illnesses such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

JAK inhibitor

JAK inhibitors inhibit the activity of a group of enzymes known as Janus kinases (JAKs). These enzymes communicate with immune cells and cytokines, which are chemicals that cause inflammation and itching. The drugs reduce cytokines by interrupting JAK signaling, hence alleviating eczema symptoms.

Medical therapy

Inhaled corticosteroids are the most effective long-term asthma control treatments available. They decrease and prevent fluid and excess mucus when taken as directed. They also keep the airways from swelling.

Monoclonal antibody therapy

For asthma management and recurrence prevention, newer monoclonal antibodies are offering an alternative to systemic glucocorticoids. For example, omalizumab, the first monoclonal antibody medication licensed for the treatment of asthma, targeted IgE, a factor of the allergic reaction.

Oral desensitization therapy

Oral immunotherapy, or OIT, helps people desensitize to the foods they are allergic to by ingesting little amounts of the allergen daily and gradually strengthening their body's resistance to the food.

Patch desensitization therapy

Epicutaneous immunotherapy entails applying an adhesive patch to the skin that contains a trace amount of the allergic trigger. EPIT, like OIT, works by desensitizing patients and developing tolerance to the allergy.

Personalized medical therapy recommendations

Personalized medicine is a new medical technique that uses an individual's genetic profile to guide illness prevention, diagnosis, and treatment decisions.

Personalized monoclonal antibody therapy selection

The following diseases have been treated with monoclonal antibodies: cancer, rejection of a transplanted organ, and Allergies, inflammatory and immune disorders.

Preventative therapy

Preventative therapy is a series of treatments that help prevent allergic or asthmatic immune events.

Surgery prevention

Surgical prevention is procedures that work to stop reactions and symptoms before they start, such as sinusitis and others.
