Allergies are the immune system’s adverse reaction to a foreign substance, treating it as a foe even if it’s not. The immune system is designed to produce antibodies that protect the body from harmful invaders, such as the flu virus, but allergic reactions happen when antibodies are sent to fight nonlethal substances (allergens) that are misidentified as lethal.

There are many types of allergies with varying degrees of severity; allergic reactions can be mere annoyances (sneezing) or they can be life-threatening (anaphylaxis). While they cannot be cured, they can be managed through treatment.

Find A Provider

Our providers offer comprehensive treatment options. We make it easy to find exceptional providers and get world-class care, right where you live and work.

Numerous medications are available over the counter to treat symptoms and tame the immune response. People with severe allergies that lead to anaphylaxis will be urged to keep an emergency shot of epinephrine with them at all times. This shot calms symptoms of anaphylaxis, which is a medical emergency.
