Treatment for Chicken Allergy

Avoid contact with the allergen, antihistamines, bronchodialtors for asthmatic symptoms.

Animal allergy is best treated by prevention of exposure to sensitizing agents. Where this is not possible, treatment of allergy is dependent upon the type of allergic symptom, the body system affected, and the severity of the reaction. Treatments for animal allergies include:

Allergen avoidance and minimization of exposure.

Antihistamines- Useful for allergic rhinitis and some allergy mediated skin conditions. Not helpful in asthma except for mild seasonal asthma where allergy may be a precipitant.

Nasal sprays – including topical steroids and antiinflammatories used for allergic rhinitis.
