How does desensitization therapy and allergy shots work for people with allergies?
noomi asked:
I have allergies all year round! Now allergy shots…the goal is to give gradual exposure so that the body can “get use to it” and become desensitized. It’s supposed to make the body react less to the allergens. But why haven’t the body “gotten use” to the allergens after years of exposure and symptoms already? Claritin and Zyrtec isn’t working…even with a combo usage of Sudafed. Help!?

Can you get rid of allergies forever by taking medicine?
Confused asked:
A family member of mine is allergic to short haired dogs. I like a certain breed, but it happends to be short haired. I have been looking at this breed for several years now. I really don’t like the longhaired breeds. I looked and I am pretty stuck on this breed. Can we get rid of these allergies for good?
