A busy 28-year-old professional consults his physician for advice on long-standing hay fever. He reports having itchy eyes and an itchy nose, lacrimation, sneezing, rhinorrhea, and nasal congestion during the summer months. In previous years, he tried various antihistamines and nasal sprays, but these treatments only had limited benefit. A friend has suggested a corticosteroid injection or allergy injections, but he is hesitant to receive corticosteroids and unable to give up the time from work to receive injections. He is evaluated by an allergist. Skin testing confirms that he is strongly sensitized to grass pollen, with modest reactions to cat dander and house-dust mites. A trial of sublingual immunotherapy is recommended.
