Allergy Shots (Subcutaneous Immunotherapy / SCIT)
Allergy shots — clinically known as subcutaneous immunotherapy (SCIT) — gradually train your immune system to stop reacting to your specific allergens. 3–5 years of in-office injections gives most patients lasting relief, sometimes for life.
Allergy Drops (Sublingual Immunotherapy / SLIT)
Allergy drops — clinically known as sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) — are customized allergen extracts placed under the tongue daily. An at-home alternative to allergy shots that works for a wide range of environmental allergens, including pollen, dust mites, pet dander, and mold.
