    What is a Comprehensive Allergy Panel ?

    The Comprehensive Allergy Test is a simple blood test that checks for immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies in your blood that are crucial indicators of allergic reactions. IgE antibodies are produced by the immune system when it mistakenly identifies a harmless substance as a threat. When an allergy occurs, the body produces IgE antibodies, which leads to symptoms of allergy that range from mild (itching and sneezing) to severe (asthma or anaphylaxis).

    This test is essential for identifying specific allergens responsible for your symptoms, allowing for targeted management and treatment. Common allergens tested include pollen, dust, mould, animal dander, certain foods (such as nuts and shellfish), and medications like penicillin. By understanding your body's specific allergic responses, you can take proactive steps to avoid triggers and manage your condition more effectively.

    Scheduling an Allergy test at home in Bangalore is convenient and can help identify and manage allergy-related issues effectively.

    Comprehensive Allergy Package-IgE - for Acute Reaction -(236 Food & Environmental Allergens)

    Allergy testing helps identify if a person is allergic to any specific food and environment allergens. We perform allergy tests for 236 allergens (including food and environmental allergens). Allergy testing is an umbrella term used for a series of tests that can determine the kind of allergy you might be suffering from and what might have caused it. Allergies are much more than a minor inconvenience. Studies have shown that untreated allergies can contribute to a plethora of chronic illnesses, including asthma, sinus infections, upper respiratory infections, ear infections, and general susceptibility to illness.

    Comprehensive Allergy Panel Preparation

    Preparing for a comprehensive allergy test at home is easy and hassle-free.

    • Pre-requisites

    No special preparations, such as fasting, are needed for an allergy blood test.

    • Best Time to Get Tested

    You can get tested conveniently at any time during the day. The best time to get tested will be determined by your doctor based on your symptoms and medical history.

    • Who Should Take the Test

    Individuals experiencing symptoms such as a runny nose, itchy skin, watery eyes, or reactions to food, drugs, or insect bites should consider taking this test. It is particularly useful for those who suspect they have allergies but are unsure of the specific triggers.

    • Cautions Before Taking the Test

    Inform your healthcare provider if you are taking any allergy medications like antihistamines. These medications can alter the immune system’s response to allergens. Your provider may ask you to stop taking these medications before the test to ensure accurate results.

    An allergy blood test is essential if you experience symptoms that suggest an allergy. These symptoms can include:

    • Stuffy or runny nose

    • Hives (itchy raised red patches on the skin)

    • Diarrhoea

    • Vomiting

    Your treating doctor might also recommend the allergy panel test if you have:

    • Anaphylaxis: A severe, potentially life-threatening reaction to certain foods, insect stings, or other allergens.

    • Allergic Rhinitis (Hay Fever): Often caused by pollen, pet dander, or mould.

    • Contact Dermatitis: Triggered by contact with irritants or substances such as chemicals, latex, detergents, poisonous plants, or metals like nickel.

    An allergy blood test helps identify specific allergens responsible for your symptoms, enabling more effective management and treatment of your allergies.

    An allergy involves the immune system and can lead to severe reactions, such as hives, respiratory issues, and anaphylaxis. Intolerance, on the other hand, involves a chemical reaction to a food or drink that affects the digestive system and does not involve the immune system. Symptoms of intolerance typically include gastrointestinal discomfort rather than the immune response seen in allergies.
