Inhalant allergy is a form of allergy that occurs when symptoms arise after inhaling airborne
allergens such as plant pollen, dust, mold, or animal particles. Symptoms of inhalant allergies
can include allergic rhinitis, characterized by a runny nose and nasal congestion, as well as
bronchial asthma, which involves shortness of breath, breathing difficulties, coughing, and
asthma attacks.
Year-round inhalant allergy is a common type of allergic reaction where symptoms persist
throughout the entire year, rather than only in certain seasons. The most common triggers for
year-round allergies are house dust mites, various types of mold, dander from cats and dogs,
and insects, particularly cockroaches.
The Year-Round Inhalant Allergens package is a valuable and essential tool for identifying
allergies to allergens that may be present in the environment all year round. This allows the
treating physician to accurately diagnose the cause of the allergy and develop a personalized
treatment and symptom management plan. In turn, the patient can take appropriate measures
to reduce contact with the allergens and alleviate allergy symptoms.
The test is conducted using the innovative ImmunoCAP technology, which is considered the
gold standard in allergy diagnostics worldwide.
Results are provided quantitatively for each allergen individually.
