The only treatment that changes the allergy

Medications Mask. Immunotherapy Retrains.

Antihistamines, sprays and inhalers quiet symptoms while you take them. Stop, and the allergy is exactly where you left it.Immunotherapy exposes the body to tiny, rising doses of the allergens it overreacts to. Over months the immune system learns to tolerate them, and symptoms fall away. For decades that meant injections at a clinic.Allergy drops deliver the same antigens as liquid under the tongue, where specialized cells carry them into the bloodstream. Same principle, no needle, no waiting room.
What the drops cover

What to expect

A Daily Habit, Not An Appointment.

01
A few drops, once a dayUnder the tongue, hold briefly, swallow. Most people pair it with brushing their teeth.
02
Relief in 3 to 12 weeksDaily dosing builds tolerance faster than twice-weekly shots. Many patients notice a change within the first month.
03
Stay on it about three yearsThat is how long the immune system needs to make the new behavior stick. Some stop afterward without relapse; others keep a maintenance dose.
Questions

Allergy Drops

Where can I buy allergy drops?They are a compounded prescription, not a retail product. A participating physician prescribes after testing or an allergy history review, and the pharmacy ships to your home. Start with the short form on the Get Started page.
Are allergy drops covered by insurance?Testing and office visits usually are. The drops themselves are covered by some plans and not others, which is why most patients compare self-pay drops against months of shot copays and travel. The cost page has the numbers.
Are allergy drops proven?A Cochrane Collaboration review of 22 studies and 979 patients concluded sublingual immunotherapy is a safe treatment that reduces symptoms and medication needs in allergic rhinitis. The World Health Organization and the ARIA guidelines recognize sublingual immunotherapy as a safe, effective allergy treatment.

Where They Differ.

Safety and settingShots carry a real risk of anaphylaxis, so they are given in a clinic with a waiting period. Drops have a far lower risk and are taken at home.
AgeMost physicians will not give shots before age seven or eight. Drops are safe from about age three.
Food allergiesShots are not used for food allergy. Drops have been shown safe and effective for milk, egg, wheat, nut and other food allergies.
Twice A Week In Clinic · Or Daily At Home
When drops work and shots cannot

Patients Shots Leave Behind.

Some people are not candidates for injections at all, and others simply cannot sustain the schedule.Uncontrolled asthma makes shots too risky. Young children are excluded. Frequent travelers and shift workers cannot keep a twice-weekly clinic appointment for a year. Needle-averse patients quit early.Drops solve all four. The dose is daily, portable and self-administered, and many patients who plateaued on shots respond to the comprehensive serum because it covers allergens their shot mix never included.
Tablets

What About Allergy Tablets?

Under-the-tongue tablets are real immunotherapy, but each one treats a single allergen.Current tablets cover timothy grass, northern grasses or ragweed, one per tablet. If that is your only allergy, they work. Most people are allergic to several trees, grasses, weeds, molds and animals at once, which a single-allergen tablet cannot touch.Liquid drops can carry a broad mix in one bottle, which is why our serum covers dozens of antigens rather than one.
Questions

Drops Or Shots

Are drops as effective as shots?Reviews including the Cochrane Collaboration and the ARIA guidelines confirm sublingual immunotherapy is effective. Daily dosing often brings relief sooner than injections.
I did shots for years. Will drops help?Often, yes. Patients who improved little on a narrow shot mix frequently respond to the comprehensive serum, which covers far more antigens.
Can I switch mid-course?Yes. Your prescribing provider will review your shot history and set a starting dose for the drops.
