    Understanding Oral Immunotherapy

    Oral immunotherapy, also known as food desensitization, is a treatment that helps you build up immunities to food allergens that could otherwise be life-threatening.

    What is Oral Immunotherapy (OIT)?

    Oral immunotherapy is a treatment where a patient ingests small doses of an allergen to build up resistance.

    History of Oral Immunotherapy

    Oral immunotherapy dates back to the times of Alexander the Great. He would ingest poisons to increase immunities.

    Frequently Asked Questions About OIT

    Trusted Food Allergy Specialists in Buford, GA

    It’s possible that your symptoms (symptoms you might attribute to something like hay fever), are actually caused by a food allergy. At our Buford food allergy treatment center, we use a thorough process to pinpoint the cause of your symptoms and provide an effective solution. Our allergy testing options include the following:

    • Skin Prick Test
    • Blood Test
    • Oral Challenge Test

    Once testing is complete, our allergy specialists will create a personalized treatment plan to help you feel your best. This plan will provide relief by gradually desensitizing your body to the allergen, significantly reducing the risk of a severe allergic reaction.

    This desensitization process is achieved through oral immunotherapy (OIT), a highly effective treatment designed to build your tolerance to allergens over time. This innovative approach has shown great success, even in cases of severe sensitivity to triggers like eggs and peanuts.
