SMART STEPS TO PREVENT ALLERGY

 

A FEW STEPS TO TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR ALLERGY22

 
 

Find out what the cause of allergy might be

In some cases, it may be easy to determine what causes your allergic reaction by the timing of your symptoms.22

In other cases, the cause may be harder to discover. If this is the case, your doctor may carry out skin prick tests or blood tests to identify the allergen that triggered your allergic reaction.22

Avoid or minimize exposure to the allergen

Once the allergen is identified, there are things you may do to minimize exposure to it. This may be achieved by removing plants from your garden, avoiding contact with pets or changing how you clean your house. 22

Allergy treatment

This may be through medication or immunotherapy. Allergy medication can include:22

  • Antihistamines
  • Decongestants
  • Corticosteroids
  • Specific mast cell stabilizers

If these treatments are not successful, immunotherapy may be recommended by your doctor.22

ANTIHISTAMINES ARE A FREQUENTLY RECOMMENDED TREATMENT FOR HIVES (URTICARIA).9

They work by blocking the effect of histamine, a chemical in the skin that can cause allergy symptoms.9

In addition to antihistamines, your allergist may recommend cold compresses or anti-itch salves to ease the symptoms.9
Severe episodes of urticaria may require temporary treatment with a corticosteroid medication or an immune modulator. If your reaction involves swelling of your tongue or lips, or you have trouble breathing, your allergist may prescribe an epinephrine (adrenaline).9
