Health Tip: Could Allergy Shots Help You?
By LadyLively on February 21, 2017
If you have allergies, regular shots (immunotherapy) are designed to make you less sensitive to allergens over time.
The American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology says you may be a candidate for allergy shots if:
- Your symptoms are moderate-to-severe and your allergy season lasts a few months or more.
- You want to avoid long-term use of allergy medications.
- You can commit the time needed for getting regular allergy shots.
- You can afford the cost of allergy shots and related medical visits.
