From Ah-Choo! to Ahhhhh: Managing Seasonal Allergies

With spring in the air, if you have seasonal allergies, your sneezing and runny nose will appear soon—if they haven’t already. That means it’s time to find an effective treatment to reduce your symptoms and improve your quality of life.

If over-the-counter medications don’t work for you, sublingual allergy immunotherapy drops may be the answer you’re looking for, says Esther Cheng, MD, an otolaryngologist with The Christ Hospital Physicians – Ear, Nose and Throat. This new therapy can potentially give you long-term allergy relief.

“If the regular allergy medicines or treatments your primary care physician recommends aren’t working and your symptoms are persistent, you need to seek specialty care,” she says. “Sublingual allergy immunotherapy drops are an alternative to classic allergy shots. They offer symptom relief with more comfort and convenience.”
