Allergy Drops

What Are Allergy Drops?

Allergy drops—or sublingual immunotherapy—are small doses of allergens administered under the tongue to gradually desensitize the immune system to triggers such as pollen, dust mites, mold, or pet dander. By training the immune system to tolerate these allergens, this treatment provides lasting relief and helps enhance quality of life. Allergy drops are also perfect allergy shot alternatives. 


At
Premier Allergy of Texas, we specialize in providing innovative, personalized, high-quality allergy drop treatment. We stay at the forefront of innovation to provide our patients with the most effective and current care.

Understanding the Process

The allergy drop process starts with a detailed evaluation, including a medical history review and allergy testing, to identify your specific triggers. 


Once we identify your allergens through test results, our specialist designs a personalized treatment plan containing precise doses of your specific allergens. 


Administering allergy drops is a simple, convenient process: place a few drops of the customized solution under your tongue daily, allowing your immune system to gradually adapt to the allergens. This hassle-free treatment can be administered at home, offering a comfortable alternative to traditional allergy shots. 


Allergy drops are not only effective but also safe for both children and adults, offering a more flexible option without the need for frequent clinic visits. This treatment offers a convenient and personalized approach, allowing you to achieve long-lasting relief and enhance your overall quality of life.

Conditions Treated

Allergy drops are a highly effective treatment option for a range of allergic conditions. They can help alleviate symptoms of allergic asthma, seasonal allergies (hay fever), pet allergies (especially cats and dogs), perennial allergies caused by indoor allergens like dust mites and mold, and even some food allergies as determined by your provider.


Unlike treatments that simply mask symptoms, allergy drops target the root cause of your allergies, offering long-term relief. Consult an allergy specialist to know if allergy drops are the right solution for you.

Safety and Side Effects

Allergy drops are an FDA-approved, off-label treatment used safely worldwide for decades. As with any medical treatment, sublingual immunotherapy drops also carry potential side effects. You may experience mild itching or swelling in the mouth or throat, but this usually subsides within a few minutes to hours. 


While severe reactions such as anaphylaxis are rare, our highly skilled allergist will carefully monitor you throughout the treatment to ensure your safety. They will also adjust the dosage as necessary to reduce the risk of adverse reactions. Sublingual immunotherapy side effects are manageable.
