Treatments
Tired of sneezing, itching, and congestion ruling your life? Allergy treatments, such as immunotherapy shots or drops, are designed to reduce and, ultimately, eliminate allergic reactions caused by environmental allergens like pollen, dust mites, pet dander, and more. These treatments target the immune system, helping it become less sensitive to the allergens that trigger your symptoms.
At
Premier Allergy TX, we specialize in providing effective, customized allergy treatments to help you live a healthier, allergy-free life. Our services include allergy shots, allergy drops, and biologic treatments tailored to your unique needs.
Receive Comprehensive Allergy Treatment
Allergy shots, also called immunotherapy, are injections you receive as a long-term treatment option to help reduce or prevent allergy symptoms. It contains trace amounts of allergens that work to slowly desensitize your body to allergens to build immunity or tolerance.
You may benefit from allergy shots if you have:
- Eczema or skin hives
- Sensitivity to insect bites
- Asthma aggravated by allergies
- Allergic rhinitis or allergic conjunctivitis
Allergy shots are also commonly used to treat allergy symptoms such as runny nose, itchy eyes, sneezing, and asthma, usually caused by pollen, dust mites, mold, pet dander, and insect stings. They can greatly benefit people who suffer from persistent allergic reactions that don’t respond well to medications or who are looking for a more permanent solution.
Allergy drops, or sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT), are convenient, needle-free treatments for allergies where drops of allergen extract are placed under the tongue to help the body build tolerance over time.
This method treats symptoms caused by allergens such as pollen, mold, pet dander, and dust mites. You may benefit from allergy drops if you suffer from:
- Allergic rhinitis
- Conjunctivitis
- Allergy-induced asthma
Allergy drops are the best treatment for seasonal allergies and are ideal for people who want a convenient, at-home treatment option. They are handy for those with busy lifestyles, needle phobia, or those seeking a noninvasive alternative to allergy shots.
Biologics are a modern, targeted treatment option for patients with severe allergies or asthma who don’t respond to standard treatments. These medications work by blocking specific immune system pathways responsible for allergic inflammation.
Benefits of Biologics
Provides relief for severe and persistent symptoms
Reduces asthma flare-ups and chronic inflammation
Offers personalized treatment based on your unique condition
The Difference Between Allergy Shots and Allergy Drops
The main differences between allergy shots and allergy drops lie in how they are administered and how your body builds tolerance to allergens. Here are key differences everyone should know:
Allergy Shots
- Delivered through injections and usually administered by a healthcare professional
- Requires frequent visits to a doctor’s office, especially during the initial phase
- Used to treat a wider variety of allergens
- Carry a higher risk of reactions due to the injection of higher allergy doses
- A better option for individuals with severe or multiple allergies
Allergy Drops
- Taken sublingually (under the tongue), offering a needle-free option
- Can be self-administered at home, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules
- Limited to treating specific allergies like seasonal allergies
- Considered safer and have a lower risk of severe allergic reactions
- Better suited for children, people who are afraid of needles, or those unable to commit to regular visits
