What are the advantages of allergy drops?

In addition to being able to treat patients of all ages safely and effectively, there are other advantages to allergy drops:

  • Therapy treats the cause, not just temporary symptoms. The goal of allergy drops is to help you build long-term tolerance to your allergens so ongoing treatment and medication is no longer needed.
  • Lower cost, fewer clinic visits. Compared to shots, allergy drops cost less and require fewer clinic visits. Most patients receiving allergy drops need only a few clinic visits the first year, and then once every 6-12 months until visits are no longer needed.
  • More convenient. You can take allergy drops at home, school, or wherever you are, making it much easier to stay with your treatment.
  • Less medication. Our patients report, and research confirms, that they typically need less medication to control symptoms after beginning allergy drops.
  • Enjoy healthier days.The end benefit of taking drops consistently? Feeling better. Patients typically report fewer clinic visits, hospitalizations, and less lost time from work and school.
