Our Therapies

Treatment of allergic disease can broadly be split into two categories, both of which are equally as important to consider: Proactive management – long-term strategies to prevent flare-ups Reactive management – immediate treatment of acute symptoms In the early stages of the diagnosis and disease, it is important to provide both the animal and owner with short term relief from the clinical signs. However, it’s crucial not to forget the need for a long-term strategy for this lifelong condition. A flexible and multi-modal approach, which includes a method for controlling the primary disease, is the best option for achieving sustained success. Allergen-specific immunotherapy is a proven, effective treatment for allergies. Over time, injected allergens stimulate the immune system with the aim of reaching immunological tolerance. This type of therapy is recommended by The International Committee on Allergic Diseases of Animals (ICADA), and is widely used by dermatologists to target the root cause of allergy.
