IMMEDIATE MECHANISM: CLINICAL ALLERGIC DISORDERS
2.12
Therapeutic approaches
We distinguish three approaches to treat symptoms in immediate type allergies.
The first option is ‘elimination’ – meaning the avoidance of the allergen. The second option is the ‘pharmacotherapy’ – which refers to specific drugs that are supposed to block or inhibit a mechanism causing the allergic symptoms. The third option is ‘immunotherapy’ – which aims at modulating the immune reaction.
