    What is a Comprehensive Allergy Panel ?

    The Comprehensive Allergy Test is a simple blood test designed to detect IgE antibodies, which are vital in identifying allergic reactions. When your immune system incorrectly sees a harmless substance as a threat, it produces these antibodies. This leads to allergic reactions that range from mild (sneezing, itching) to severe (asthma, anaphylaxis). The test is crucial for identifying the specific allergens causing your symptoms, facilitating tailored management and treatment. It checks for common allergens such as pollen, dust, moulds, animal dander, foods like nuts and shellfish, and medications like penicillin. By recognizing your body's specific allergic responses, you can take informed steps to avoid triggers and manage your allergies better.

    For convenience, you can schedule an Allergy test at home in Gurgaon to effectively identify and manage your allergy-related concerns.

    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 straightforward and stress-free with these steps:

    • Pre-requisites

    You don’t need to fast or do any special preparation for an Allergy Blood test.

    • Best Time to Get Tested

    You can get tested at any time of the day that suits you best. Your doctor will decide the ideal time based on your symptoms and health history.

    • Who Should Take the Test

    If you are experiencing symptoms like a runny nose, itchy skin, watery eyes, or reactions to foods, medications, or insect bites, this test is recommended for you. It’s especially beneficial for those who suspect allergies but are not sure of the exact triggers.

    • Cautions Before Taking the Test

    Before the test, inform your doctor if you are on any allergy medications like antihistamines, as these can alter the immune system’s response and affect the test results. You might be advised to discontinue these medications before the test to ensure accuracy.

    Why Take the Comprehensive Allergy Panel Checkup?

    Consider an Allergy Blood test if you are experiencing symptoms that may point to an allergy. These symptoms include:

    • Vomiting

    • Diarrhoea

    • Coughing

    • Shortness of breath

    • Wheezing

    • Itchy, watery eyes

    • Stuffy or runny nose

    • Hives (itchy, raised red patches on the skin)

    • Sneezing

    Your treating physician might also suggest an allergy panel test if you have:

    • Allergic Rhinitis (Hay Fever): Commonly due to allergens such as pollen, pet dander, or mould.

    • Contact Dermatitis: Triggered by exposure to irritants like chemicals, latex, detergents, poisonous plants, or metals like nickel.

    • Anaphylaxis: A critical, life-threatening reaction to specific allergens, such as certain foods or insect stings.

    This test identifies specific allergens responsible for your symptoms, allowing for a more effective approach to managing and treating your allergies.
