  • Severe hayfever symptoms can ruin peoples
    summers and have a detrimental effect on quality
    of life and ability to work optimally.
  • Certain parts of the UK are particularly affected
    by pollens and allergens likely to give severe
    symptoms, with the most likely culprits being a
    mixture of flower and tree pollen such as silver
    birch and rape seed.

  • If you have severe symptoms that fail to respond
    to other treatments, such as oral antihistamine
    medications, topical eye drops and so on, it is
    possible to request an appointment to discuss the
    hayfever injection at our clinics in Nottingham,
    Derby, Leicester, Sheffield, Leeds and Watford.
  • The hayfever injection is a corticosteroid
    injection which has anti-inflammatory properties.

  • It suppresses the immune system and stops the
    natural pollen response from going haywire.
    This is the same medication given by doctors
    regularly for tennis elbow, various ligament and
    muscular strains, osteoarthritis and other joint
    conditions.
  • As with all injected medications, and in line
    with good medical practice, the doctor will
    undertake a careful risk assessment to make sure
    that you are a good candidate for treatment, and
    will explain the potential side effects and
    likely benefits in detail.
  • In our twenty-year experience of administering
    the hayfever injection, we have seen virtually
    nothing in the way of even mild side effects
    with two people reporting a dimpling of the skin
    at the site of the injection (the buttock).

  • The overwhelming feedback from patients in terms
    of response, control of symptoms and improvement
    in quality of life is very positive.
  • It given in the top of the buttock and starts
    working almost immediately and typically kicks
    in anywhere from one to forty-eight hours after
    administration.
  • This medication administered when hayfever
    symptoms first appear can give symptom remission
    that lasts for the duration of the entire pollen
    or allergen season (usually three months).
  • The dose required to control severe symptoms is
    partly related to body weight, and heavier
    subjects will require a larger dose to ease their
    symptoms. We have found that the therapeutic dose
    for most effective relief is 1mg per kg of body
    weight, therefore our standard doses administered
    are 40mg-80mg per patient per season.
