Abstract
Our survey results indicate that most allergists dose adjust for local reactions to allergen immunotherapy. Although most allergists agree that local reactions are not predictive of future systemic reactions, the 2 main reasons for dose adjustments include the concern that local reactions cause discomfort that may lead to patient noncompliance with immunotherapy and the concern that local reactions are predictive of future local reactions.
