My allergies are seasonal and pet related, and they provide me some nuisance every year but aren't generally debilitating. That said, itchy eyes and a nasal drip are annoying and there's probably some amount I'd pay to just not have to deal with them.
I think my worry is that I'd start something like this and experience the same low grade symptoms (e.g., a treatment like this might improve my symptoms, but only take them from low-grade to low-grade.) As someone who does take an allergy med during seasonal allergy seasons but is able to function without them, is there much benefit into looking into SLIT? Or is this something that's designed to treat folks who are experiencing a certain level of quality of life impairment?
Allergy drop immunotherapy (SLIT) can help allergy sufferers with both sever and mild symptoms have significant reduction in their symptoms -- or, in your language, it helps people with low-grade allergies too. However, if an over-the-counter allergy med is all you need, then maybe that's the right treatment for you.
Our treatment is for people who don't want to worry about taking an allergy medication during allergy season at all.
