Allergy immunotherapy
The World Health Organisation (WHO) recognizes allergy immunotherapy (vaccination) as the only approach that targets the cause of allergy and alters the natural course of the disease.
The benefits that can be gained from allergy immunotherapy are reflected in the current ARIA (Allergic Rhinitis and its Impact on Asthma) treatment guidelines, which recommend early treatment in the disease process in order to prevent further development of allergic rhinitis and/or asthma.
