Allergy

APS Pharmacy is now compounding allergy immunotherapy prescriptions for physicians throughout the United States. Utilizing our USP Chapter 797 compliant facility we can compound sterile injectable and sublingual immunotherapy medications.

Sublingual Allergy Therapy

Sublingual allergy therapy works by delivering a precise, measured dose of the substances that trigger allergic reactions (allergens) to stimulate your immune system - but not enough to cause a full-blown allergic reaction.

Allergen extracts are placed under the tongue and affect the immune system through specialized cells that are found under the tongue.

The dose of allergens is gradually increased over time. This helps the body's immune system build up a tolerance to the allergens, which can reduce and/or eliminate your allergy symptoms over time. The mixture and concentration of allergen extracts in each prescription is determined by the ordering physician.
