The exact mechanism by which desensitization immunotherapy like AllergyFree switches off allergies is uncertain, but there are several working theories:

One theory has been that AllergyFree works by helping your body naturally produce a specific antibody which blocks IgE, which is an allergy-triggering substance in your body. During the course of treatment, the levels of IgE fall, and IgG rise – naturally tricking your body into becoming both less reactive to allergies, but also making your body produce more of a natural substance to block them.

Another theory is that immunotherapy like AllergyFree modulates T-helper cells, which causes switching (of what?) from predominantly TH2 (an [antibody?] which induces creation of IgE – the substance which makes your body react to allergies) to predominantly TH1 (which induces creation of IgG (the allergy-blocking antibody).

Either way, your allergy symptoms drop along with your levels of allergy-triggering IgE throughout and after treatment with AllergyFree.

Absolutely! Allergy Immunotherapy Program is safe for people ages 5 and up.

Most patients who finish their drops are symptom-free by the end of the 12 month program. You may continue the program if your provider deems you suitable.

This is a 12-month treatment which includes monthly shipments of drops that are placed underneath the tongue every day.

Adding daily antigens to your body will gradually increase your threshold for an immune response. Over time, these effects will accumulate and create a higher tolerance to environmental allergens that previously triggered an immune response.

Taking AllergyFree is not recommended for pregnant women. However, if you are already taking sublingual immunotherapy drops and become pregnant, you can continue AllergyFree at a stable dose throughout your pregnancy.
