Allergy drops offer a needle-free immunotherapy path

What are allergy drops?

Allergy drops, also called sublingual immunotherapy or SLIT, are liquid drops that the patient places under their tongue on a daily basis.

Allergy drops use a tolerance-building principle, with at-home dosing after a supervised start phase.

Formulations are customized from your testing and clinical history.

This is not a one-size-fits-all product. Dosing and composition are adjusted to match your sensitivity profile.

What kinds of allergies can drops address?

Drops may be used for a range of environmental allergens when supported by testing and clinical relevance.

Your allergy testing results are the foundation of your allergy drop customization.

Allergy drops are used primarily for "aero-allergens," allergy inducing substances like pollen and pet dander that float through the air.

We do not offer allergy drop treatment for food or venom allergens.

Who is a good fit for allergy drops?

• Patients who prefer a needle-free, long-term strategy may be strong candidates.
• Patients with persistent allergic rhinitis symptoms despite treatment.
• Patients with trigger patterns confirmed by testing and history.

Who is not a good fit for allergy drops?

Some medical conditions and medications can limit suitability, so candidacy is confirmed before treatment starts.

• Severe uncontrolled asthma may require a different approach.
• Beta-blocker use or significant heart disease can affect candidacy.
• Pregnancy and age under ten can affect treatment timing decisions.

At-home treatment expectations

After supervised initiation, patients continue dosing at home on a structured schedule. Consistency, follow-up, and symptom tracking are key to long-term success.

We monitor progress and adjust protocols as needed to keep treatment safe and effective.

Long-term monitoring

As effective immunotherapy takes years, long-term compliance and follow-up are critical.

After testing and the initiation of allergy drops, a follow-up visit with the doctor will be scheduled to ensure proper use, effectiveness, and the overall treatment strategy.

After the start-up phase, patients typically need only one or two follow-up visits with the doctor each year.

Our dedicated allergy nurse is also available to offer guidance and answer questions during the immunotherapy process.
