Your pet’s allergies may worsen over time. Unlike children, who typically outgrow their allergies, cats and dogs grow into their allergies, and they tend to worsen over time. Your pet’s allergies will likely require lifelong management that must be adapted to their changing needs to ensure their comfort. Immunotherapy works with your pet’s body to help desensitize their immune system and promote fewer flare ups and reduce allergy signs. While your pet’s body is introduced to immunotherapy, they may require weekly injections, although monthly—or more infrequent—injections may be sufficient. Immunotherapy is not a quick fix, and often takes six months to a year to see optimal results. Once achieved, however, your pet will be much more comfortable with minimal side effects, compared with other therapies.
