Allergen immunotherapy

Allergen immunotherapy is a targeted treatment intended for selected patients with a confirmed allergic condition. Unlike medication, which mainly relieves the symptoms of an allergy, immunotherapy aims to gradually influence how the immune system reacts to a specific allergen.

Before starting treatment, a specialist allergy examination is required, along with an assessment of symptoms and confirmation of the allergen causing the patient's clinical difficulties.

Who is allergen immunotherapy suitable for?

The doctor individually assesses whether allergen immunotherapy is suitable for the patient, taking into account the type of allergy, the intensity of symptoms, test results, age, associated conditions, and previous treatment.

How the treatment works

The specific form, dosage, and duration of treatment are determined by the allergologist. During treatment, the patient attends regular check-ups at which the effect, tolerance, and further course of therapy are evaluated.

Allergen immunotherapy is not suitable for every patient and is started only based on a specialist's decision.
