Is there anything I need to do before taking my airborne allergy test?

Unlike a skin prick test, there are no medication or supplement restrictions prior to collecting your blood sample. We are measuring IgE antibodies on this test (not histamine), so antihistamines will not affect your test results.

If you are on immunotherapy or allergy shots to reduce IgE reactivity, that treatment is intended to lower your IgE levels over time by “training your body” to become less allergic. There is no need to stop this before taking our test.
