An occasional sneeze may be completely normal. However, when sneezing occurs repeatedly, it may indicate that the body is reacting to a particular substance, including an allergy trigger or allergen.

Allergies occur when the immune system responds to certain substances. Laboratory allergy testing can help identify this response through a blood test that measures Immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies.

What Is a Total IgE Test?

A Total IgE test is a laboratory examination that measures the overall level of Immunoglobulin E in the blood. Elevated Total IgE levels are often associated with allergic reactions.

This examination can serve as one of the laboratory tests used to help identify an allergic response in the body.

Understanding the 96-Allergen Specific IgE Test

In addition to Total IgE, the 96-Allergen Specific IgE Test can be used to detect and measure Immunoglobulin E antibodies against 96 different allergy triggers simultaneously.

The allergens tested may include substances commonly encountered in everyday life, such as dust, pollen, animal dander, milk, eggs, and various other potential triggers.

Identifying the specific substances responsible for an allergic reaction can help individuals take more appropriate steps to avoid their triggers.

Why Is Identifying Allergy Triggers Important?

Knowing which allergens trigger a reaction can support the development of appropriate prevention and treatment strategies. Identifying specific triggers may also help reduce the risk of severe or recurrent allergic reactions in the future.

PRAMITA provides laboratory examinations to help identify allergy triggers early.

Know your triggers, take care of your health, and consider testing when allergy-related symptoms continue to recur.
