This is a treatment where specially formulated doses of grass pollen are dissolved under the tongue, resulting in gradual desensitisation to grass pollen and a corresponding improvement in hay-fever symptoms.
This treatment is suitable for hay fever sufferers who have positive allergy testing to grass pollen. It is started 4 months before the grass pollen season and is a once daily tablet under the tongue. The treatment is continued for 3 years for maximum results, but benefit is generally seen by the following pollen season. Although is a very safe treatment, the first dose is given as a supervised dose in our clinic.
