Hayfever Injection help for severe sufferers
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 rapeseed. 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.

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).

This dimpling is uncommon, however patients are
always advised that it may occur and like all
administered medications, the risks of any
treatment must be balanced against the potential
benefit of the treatment given. 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. The full
range of treatments options available for hay
fever will be discussed by doctors, who will
decide whether the potential benefits of the
treatment for severe hayfever outweigh any risks.

Every year our clinics see a cohort of
desperate people who have tried the oral and
topical medications without much symptomatic
improvement including those who work outdoors,
those who have severe allergic reactions to
pollen, business people whose summers and
meetings are ruined by severe symptoms, drivers
who feel unsafe to be on the road and,
interestingly, a number of pharmacists, doctors
and NHS GPs.

No intervention currently available
to severe hayfever sufferers in the UK offers
greater convenience, symptom relief and patient
satisfaction than this single intramuscular
injection which can last up to three months. We
have hundreds of messages each hayfever season
from grateful patients who feel that they have
regained their quality of life. The hayfever
injection costs just 75 per 40mg dose, including
a free medical consultation at Regent Street
Clinic. If you are over 60kg, an 80mg dose may
be advised by the clinician. The optimal dose to
alleviate symptoms is 1mg of Kenalog per 1kg of
body weight. All patients attending our clinics
for this injection are advised to read the
manufacturers patient information
leaflet here prior to attending, so that they are
able to make an informed decision to have
treatment, having considered all the risks, as
with all medication.
