Who is the ALERGOSCAN package intended for?
The package is designed for children and adults with symptoms suggestive of an allergy: chronic runny nose, coughing, recurrent respiratory infections, skin symptoms (rash, atopic dermatitis, hives, swelling of the lips or face), bloating or abdominal pain, and unexplained diarrhea. Unlike skin prick tests, serological tests are safe, non-invasive, and can be performed regardless of age, skin condition, or the use of antihistamines.
