This medicine is subject to additional monitoring.
Allergens are substances that can trigger allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. They can be natural or artificial in origin and include pollen, dust mites, molds, foods, insect venom, medications, and chemicals. Allergic reactions occur when the immune system mistakenly identifies these substances as harmful and produces IgE antibodies to combat them.
Allergy symptoms range from mild, such as sneezing, itching, or skin rashes, to severe, such as breathing difficulties or anaphylactic shock. Identifying specific allergens is done through skin tests or blood tests.
Treatment of allergies includes avoiding allergen exposure, using antihistamines, corticosteroids, or, in severe cases, administering adrenaline. In some cases, specific immunotherapy can help reduce sensitivity to allergens.
Patient education is essential for managing allergies. Individuals with severe allergies should be prepared for emergencies and always carry an adrenaline auto-injector. Consulting an allergist is recommended for a personalized treatment plan.
