Primary ENT treats allergy symptoms
Most patients ease their allergy symptoms with over-the-counter or prescription medications. These medications may treat the symptoms, but fail to treat the root cause of the allergy.
​
Pharmaceutical companies spend hundreds of millions of dollars per year marketing allergy medication to consumers, reinforcing the habit of reaching for these drugs instead of seeking long-term relief.
​
Primary ENT treats patients with allergy immunotherapy rather than masking the symptoms.
