I'm trying to interpret this statement. Are patients paying for therapy for 5 years before seeing effects, or is a course of treatment valid for 5 years?
Patients see improvement in symptoms after 6 months, with some patients reporting improvement as soon as 6 weeks.
If patients stays on drops for 5 years, they can expect significant decrease in allergy symptoms for decades, even once they have stopped taking a daily allergy drop.
If the patient stops taking their allergy drops, they will still see a reduction of their allergy symptoms, but it won't last for decades -- it may only last a few months.
Ordered an Allergy Test kit.
Will update everyone in 5 years if it was worth it or not! :)
