Welcome to our Sublingual Immunotherapy service page. Here, we offer shotless allergy therapy using sublingual allergy treatment for environmental and food allergies.
Sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) is a safe and effective alternative to traditional allergy shots. It involves placing drops or tablets containing small amounts of allergens under the tongue, where they are absorbed into the bloodstream. Over time, SLIT can help desensitize the immune system to specific allergens, reducing allergic reactions and symptoms.
Sublingual immunotherapy offers similar benefits to allergy shots in terms of desensitizing the immune system to allergens but without the need for injections. It is a convenient and well-tolerated option for individuals who prefer a shotless approach to allergy treatment.
The effectiveness of sublingual immunotherapy can vary depending on factors such as the severity of allergies, the specific allergens being treated, and individual response to treatment. Improvement in symptoms may be noticeable within a few months to a year of starting SLIT.
Side effects of sublingual immunotherapy are generally mild and may include local reactions such as itching or swelling in the mouth or throat. Serious allergic reactions are rare but can occur. Our healthcare providers closely monitor patients during treatment to ensure safety.
The duration of sublingual immunotherapy treatment varies depending on individual factors such as the severity of allergies and treatment response. Our healthcare providers will develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and monitor your progress closely.
