Emory University Woodruff Health Sciences Center issued the following news release:
If you dislike those weekly or monthly allergy shots, but need the therapy to dry up your nose and watery eyes, Emory Crawford Long Hospital is one of the few places in metro Atlanta to now offer a new option - self-administered, daily allergy drops given under the tongue.
"The new form of treatment is much more convenient for patients, equally effective and safer than receiving allergy injections," says Alpen Patel, MD, ENT allergist at the Emory Sinus, Nasal and Allergy Center at Emory Crawford Long Hospital and assistant professor in the Department of Otolaryngology, Emory University School of Medicine.
