Drug & Inhalant Allergy Test Details

Understanding Drug and Inhalant Allergies 

Allergies represent the response of your body to a foreign protein (allergens). Drug allergies are a range of symptoms that result from an allergic response to medication. These symptoms can vary from mild discomfort to severe, potentially life-threatening conditions. Inhalant allergies, on the other hand, are triggered by airborne substances that you inhale, including both perennial allergens that can affect you year-round and seasonal allergens.

Symptoms of Drug and Inhalant Allergies 

Typical signs of a drug or inhalant allergy include: 

• Noticeable swelling of lips, tongue, or face 

• Red, itchy skin or eyes 

• Skin rashes 

• Wheezing  

• Bleeding 

• Hives 

The majority of allergies can be effectively treated, yet in some instances, they can escalate to severe conditions like anaphylaxis and allergic asthma, or even result in fatality. Keep in mind that if you already have asthma, inhalant allergies have the potential to provoke or exacerbate your symptoms, such as wheezing and difficulty breathing. 

Symptoms of a severe allergic reaction may include: 

• Diarrhoea 

• Stomach pain or cramps 

• Low blood pressure 

• Nausea and vomiting 

• Confusion 

• Trouble breathing with wheezing or a hoarse voice 

• Trouble swallowing 

• Feeling your heart racing 

• Feeling dizzy or fainting 

• Itchy hives on different parts of the body 

• A fast pulse 

To avoid the risk of these complications, it's best to detect your allergies using a drug and inhalant allergy test early on. 

The Importance of Early Detection and Diagnosis of Drug and Inhalant Allergies 

Consulting an allergist for allergy testing and diagnosis can greatly improve your well-being. Depending on the suspected drug causing the reaction, your allergist may recommend a skin test or a blood test. This drug and inhalant panel test process helps in addressing more than just your symptoms like: 

• Pinpointing the root cause of your discomfort 

• Creating a personalised plan to alleviate your symptoms 

• Preventing allergy episodes and avoiding severe complications 

• Offering alternatives to deliver optimal medical care in case of drug allergies 

Thus, it's essential to find out about your allergies as soon as possible to keep yourself safe and avoid serious consequences. 

Recommended Age to Begin Testing for Inhalant Allergies 

There is no specific age to begin testing for drug and inhalant allergy panel; adults and children of any age can undergo allergy testing. 
Types of Allergens That Can be Detected Through Inhalant Allergy Blood Tests 

An allergy blood test looks for antibodies called immunoglobulin E (IgE) in your blood. IgE antibodies are produced by your immune system when it encounters allergens, even if they are harmless substances. Allergens commonly identifiable through the IgE inhalant allergy test encompass: 

• Pollen 

• Mould 

• Dust 

• Animal dander 

• Certain medications, such as penicillin 

• Specific foods, like nuts and shellfish
