🌿 Sneezing through spring, waking up with a blocked nose, or struggling with itchy eyes year after year? If antihistamines and nasal sprays aren’t cutting it anymore, it might be time for a more personalised approach to your allergy care. 🤧✨
In our latest guide, Professor Michael Rudenko explores how advanced hay fever testing—like skin prick and specific IgE blood tests—can pin down your exact pollen triggers. 📊🔍
For suitable patients, we offer sublingual spray immunotherapy (SLIT). Rather than just masking your symptoms, this long-term treatment delivers a liquid spray under the tongue to help train your immune system and reduce your allergic response over time. 👅💦
If your seasonal allergies return every year, disrupt your sleep, or occur alongside asthma symptoms, a tailored plan could help you find lasting relief. 🌬️🌱 #

Hay fever that comes back every spring or summer? 🤧
Antihistamines and nasal sprays help many people — but if symptoms still disrupt sleep, work or outdoor plans, it may be time for a more personal approach.
At the London Allergy and Immunology Centre, Professor Michael Rudenko looks at: • Your symptom pattern
• Relevant pollen triggers (skin prick or specific IgE testing)
• Whether sublingual spray immunotherapy could be suitable
Sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) is a liquid spray under the tongue. It’s a long-term treatment (usually at least 3 years) that aims to reduce the allergic response itself — not just mask symptoms.
It’s not a quick fix and isn’t right for everyone (especially if asthma isn’t well controlled). A specialist assessment helps decide.

Is your child’s school allergy-ready for September? 🎒🥜

New government guidance means every school in England must now have an allergy safety policy in place — not just a “nice to have” anymore, it’s a requirement.

Here’s your quick checklist to check with your child’s school 👇

✅ Do they have a written allergy safety policy?
✅ Is your child’s Individual Healthcare Plan up to date?
✅ Are ALL staff trained — not just the first-aiders?
✅ Is their adrenaline auto-injector in date?
✅ Do they log allergy incidents and near misses?

And if you’re still not 100% sure what your child reacts to — that’s the first thing to sort. An Individual Healthcare Plan is only as good as the diagnosis behind it 🔍
