Allergy Treatments
Allergy treatment works best with a layered plan
Relief usually comes from combining trigger strategy, medication, and when appropriate, immunotherapy. We tailor the mix to your symptom pattern and goals.
The goal is fewer flare days and better daily function
Severe and mild allergies both deserve a clear plan. Treatment selection depends on trigger profile, symptom burden, and response over time.
Building an allergy control strategy
We start by identifying likely triggers and symptom pattern, then layer the least intensive effective options first. Plans are adjusted based on outcomes, seasonality, and tolerance.
Avoidance and environment changes
- Trigger-specific exposure reduction at home, work, or school.
- Air and bedding strategies for dust, dander, and pollen control.
- Season-aware planning during peak pollen periods.
Medication classes we may use
- Antihistamines for itch, sneeze, and drainage control.
- Nasal steroid therapies for baseline inflammation control.
- Decongestant and adjunct options when clinically appropriate.
- Other class-specific options based on your symptom phenotype.
Medication recommendations are individualized and reviewed against your health history and side-effect tolerance.
Immunotherapy and severe-reaction preparedness
For persistent symptoms, immunotherapy can reduce immune overreaction over time. We discuss candidacy, treatment timeline, and expected progression before starting.
In patients at risk for severe allergic reactions, emergency preparedness planning may include epinephrine guidance and trigger-avoidance reinforcement.
Emergency preparedness for severe allergy risk
When there is concern for severe reactions, we review emergency action planning and when an epinephrine auto-injector may be appropriate. This is especially important for high-risk food, sting, or medication allergy histories.
Our treatment commitment
The goal is not just short-term symptom suppression. We build a practical plan you can sustain, with clear escalation paths from avoidance and medication to immunotherapy when needed.
If severe-reaction risk is part of your profile, we explicitly include emergency-readiness guidance in your plan, including epinephrine discussion when clinically appropriate.
