Allergy & Asthma Drug Treatment Center

Several medicines are used to treat allergies and asthma. Allergy shots are controlled doses of an allergen injected into a patient over time to increase the tolerance to an allergen. Decongestants relieve symptoms associated with nasal swelling, congestion and mucus secretion. Such symptoms include runny nose, coughing and sneezing.
