Allergen,Individual - Dust Dermatophagoides Farinae House Dust Mite

Allergen, Individual - Dust Dermatophagoides Farinae House Dust Mite test measures the IgE-mediated response to inhalant dust mites. When you come in close contact with allergy-causing substances called allergens, the immune system releases Immunoglobulin-E (IgE) antibodies to protect the body against specific allergens. This test measures the total IgE antibodies in the blood and identifies an allergy. The allergic symptoms may include sneezing, runny nose, itchy eyes, coughing, wheezing, and difficulty breathing. Medicines may be needed to manage the symptoms. However, the best treatment for an allergy is to avoid contact with or exposure to the allergen(s).
