Injected into Our Body

Published by admin on November 20, 2009

The most severe reactions can occur when allergens are injected into the body and gain direct access to the blood stream. This access carries the risk of a generalized reaction, such as anaphylaxis, which can be life-threatening. The following are commonly injected allergens that can cause severe allergic reactions:

  • Insect venom
  • Medications
  • Vaccines (including allergy shots)
  • Hormones (for example, insulin)
Allergy At A Glance
  • Allergy involves an exaggerated response of the immune system.
  • The immune system is the body’s organized defense mechanism against foreign invaders, particularly infections.
  • Allergens are substances that are foreign to the body and can cause an allergic reaction.
  • IgE is the allergy antibody.
  • Allergies can develop at any age.
  • Your risk of developing allergies is related to your parents’ allergy history.
