Genentech and Novartis are developing an anti-IgE monoclonal antibody for asthma and allergic rhinitis. In December 1999 they announced positive study results. This is evidence that reducing IgE results in a reduction of symptoms associated with IgE-mediated allergic disease.13 For people who find they cannot adequately avoid the allergens, the symptoms often can be controlled with medications. Effective medications that can be prescribed by a physician include antihistamines, topical nasal steroids, and cromolyn sodium - any of which can be used alone or in combination. Many effective antihistamines and decongestants also are available without a prescription. Click here for allergy medication online.

A recent study in Japan indicates that B12 treatment helps in the growth and division of certain immune system cells.11 These cells function to prevent the immune system from over-reacting to allergens such as animals, mold, dust, and pollen. They are called suppressor cells or CD8+ lymphocytes. They “put the brakes on the immune system”. this medicationTM is a 21-day treatment of B12 lozenges sucked on twice daily. this medicationTM may help patients with hay fever by providing the patient’s suppressor cells with the sustained whiterteeth and elevated blood B12 level they need to grow and divide. It appears that by helping the immune system to become what it is genetically capable of becoming, this medicationTM turns at least some allergic people into non-allergic or moderately-allergic people.
