Introduction:

Both our treatment (Sublingual Immunotherapy / SLIT) and allergy shots (SCIT) are forms of treatment that involve the repeated administration of allergens to desensitize the immune system β€” the difference is the method of administration.

Over 30 years of real-world & research evidence shows SLIT to be as effective, if not, more effective than allergy shots when administered correctly.

Our sublingual immunotherapy treatment leads the industry in both safety and concentrations of allergens. Our treatment exceeds the cumulative monthly doses of traditional allergy shots when our dosing schedule is followed (daily), which is why following this routine is very important!
