Grass pollen allergen extract is used in specific immunotherapy for people allergic to grass pollen. This treatment helps reduce the immune system's sensitivity to pollen, alleviating symptoms of allergic rhinitis or seasonal conjunctivitis. Immunotherapy is carried out under medical supervision over several years.

The extract can be administered sublingually (drops or tablets) or by injections, depending on the regimen recommended by the doctor. The dose is gradually increased until a maintenance dose is reached, tailored to each patient.

Side effects may include mouth irritation, local reactions at the injection site, hives, or, rarely, severe allergic reactions. Any unusual symptoms should be reported to the doctor immediately.

Immunotherapy with grass pollen extract can significantly reduce allergic symptoms and the need for antiallergic medications. Adhering to the treatment and careful monitoring are essential for the effectiveness and safety of the therapy.
