Understanding what causes your symptoms
is the first step to managing your allergies
In this brochure, you’ll learn about:
•
Why you react to an allergen
•
Your immune system and allergic reactions
•
Various treatment options, including immunotherapy
If you’re allergic to ragweed pollen, you may find yourself struggling with symptoms like stuffy nose, itchy eyes and sneezing.
These symptoms can make your life more difficult during allergy season, especially when you’re outdoors. What’s more, it can be
frustrating to suffer from the same symptoms each season.
1
What is an allergen?
An allergen is a substance in the environment that causes an allergic reaction in
some people. This brochure focuses on a specific allergen, ragweed pollen.
Your immune system and allergic reactions
When you suffer from ragweed allergies, the symptoms you experience are the
result of your body’s immune system reacting to ragweed allergens in the environment.
When you breathe in these allergens, your immune system forms antibodies
that trigger a chemical response causing symptoms like stuffy nose, runny nose,
sneezing, or itchy eyes. These familiar allergy symptoms are actually signs of your
immune system overreacting to the allergen.
Pinpointing your allergy sensitivity
People with allergies can be sensitive to many different allergens. Taking note of
when and where you experience allergy symptoms can help you and your doctor
figure out if you may be allergic to ragweed pollen.
Ask yourself:
• Are symptoms at their worst during ragweed pollen season (late summer
and fall)?
• Does avoiding outdoor activity during ragweed pollen season help
your symptoms?
• Do symptoms go away when it’s raining or when you go away on vacation?
2
Allergy testing
Your doctor may determine what is causing your allergic reaction by listening to your allergy experiences and performing skin
and/or blood tests. You may also be asked about how much your symptoms bother you and how well you can manage them.
Together, the test results and your allergy experiences may help your doctor identify the allergen that triggers your symptoms.
Treatment options
Just as different people react differently to different allergens, they react differently to treatment, too. Some people may use more than one treatment.
Once your doctor knows what allergens cause your symptoms, he or she will be able to help you plan the best approach for treating your
symptoms. Try to avoid the allergens that are giving you trouble. But because this isn’t always easy to do, you may consider treatment options.
Generally, these fall into two categories:
1. Symptom-relieving medication
During an allergic reaction, your immune system releases chemicals such as histamine that are responsible for the symptoms
you experience. Many medications delivered in the form of pills, eye drops and nasal sprays are designed to help
block those chemicals, helping to relieve your symptoms. These are available over the counter and by prescription.
2. Immunotherapy
Immunotherapy is typically given as “allergy shots” and is designed to treat the underlying cause of your
symptoms by giving you small amounts of the allergen over time. Immunotherapy may work with your
immune system to help change how your body reacts to allergens. It may help gradually build
tolerance to specific allergens.

immunotherapy. Instead of a shot, it’s a once-a

years of age.
