FOOD SLIT
Food Sublingual Immunotherapy is prescribed by your board-certified allergist specific to your food allergy need. Liquid food allergy drops are placed sublingually (under the tongue) to desensitize you to your food allergy. This treatment safely builds up tolerance in case an accidental exposure occurs.
Food Sublingual Immunotherapy is effective for those with true food allergies. This treatment can be started as young as one year of age to adults of any age as directed by your board-certified allergist.
