Comment:
I take get this injection every spring and am miserable with seasonal allergies I receive. My symptoms vanish within hours of the injection. I still take Clariton throughout the summer to help with really high pollen count days. This drug is a miracle cure as far as I am concerned. Some years I have to get a second shot in August to get me through fall harvest (corn dust in the air).

I suffered from seasonal allergies for more than a decade. This injection has been magic for causing my symptoms to all but disappear.

Comment:
I have had extreme success with this injection for seasonal allergies that have progressively worsened over the years and asthma due to allergies. Symptoms completely diminish after this injection. I have never had any success that mimics this injection with any oral meds. It has literally given me back quality of life during allergy season. I have no side effects.
