How is hyposensitization executed

: Hyposensitization alleviates the symptoms of allergic rhinitis, eye symptoms and asthma by attenuating the underlying allergic inflammation. In the treatment of hymenoptera allergy, hyposensitization may be life-saving. The need for anti-allergic medication decreases markedly with successful hyposensitization. The decision about the initiation of hyposensitization is made by a doctor specialized in allergies together with the patient. Before the treatment decision, the IgE-mediated nature of the allergic symptoms is confirmed by skin-prick or blood tests. With the development of new sublingual hyposensitizations the availability of hyposensitization will improve and its application become more common.
