Testimonials
Tracy, concerned Mom, San Antonio, Texas
“My son would get sick every year as soon as he started playing baseball in the spring. He would be so miserable that it would affect him at school and on the field. The medications made him drowsy and he hated taking them. Once we found AllergiMed’s drops, within weeks, his allergy symptoms disappeared, he no longer gets strep throat or sinus infections. Thanks AllergiMed!”
It’s a common myth that the pet’s hair is the cause of allergies. Rather, pet allergies are caused by the dander or dead skin cells that the pet sheds, as well proteins in the saliva. Cat dander is a highly potent allergen. It is very light and can stay aloft in the air for five to six hours at a time. This is why if you’re allergic and you visit a house where the cat has been banished to the basement, you might develop itching, sneezing and even asthma symptoms anyway. Studies show that cat dander can still be measured in a home several months after removing the cat. Cat dander can cling to walls, clothing, carpets, and furniture.
Some people believe that some breeds of cats are less allergenic than others. Some people believe that dark colored cats cause more allergic reactions than lighter colored cats. The truth is, all cats have the allergen Feld 1 or 2 in their saliva and urine. It is ubiquitous for all cats and it gets into their dander when they lick themselves.
