- Allergen immunotherapy, also known as desensitization, is a medical treatment for allergies such as nasal allergy, asthma, food allergies and insect bites with severe reactions. Immunotherapy involves administering gradually increasing doses of the allergen (substance to which the child is allergic). The slowly increasing doses of the allergen causes the immune system to become less sensitive to the allergen. Immunotherapy leads to reduction in the severity of the disease and hence less need for medicines. In some children with immunotherapy the disease gets cured and the child gets totally off medicines. Immunotherapy works like a vaccine. The body is given a small amount of a particular allergen in increasing doses. Immunotherapy leads to tolerance or reduced sensitivity to the allergen. This leads to reduction in symptoms of the child. The allergy symptom relief can last for many years after the immunotherapy is stopped.
Sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) or desensitisation is a treatment given under the tongue with the allergen your child is allergic to, in order to promote and improve the child's body tolerance of that specific allergen. This can be either in the form of a dispersible tablet or drops.
In this video Dr Ankit Parakh explains the details of SLIT like benefits, risks involved and how it is administered.
