allergy drops

Sublingual desensitization treatment

Allergy drops are liquid medication administered under the tongue to treat allergies, an alternative to allergy shots.

They work by gradually exposing the immune system to small amounts of allergens, building tolerance over time.

Also called sublingual immunotherapy: The doctor prescribed allergy drops instead of weekly injections.
