Allergy Phadiatop Adult
Understanding Allergy Phadiatop Adult
What is Allergy Phadiatop Adult?
Allergy Phadiatop Adult test is an allergy screening test that helps to detect inhalant allergy-causing substances (allergens) and measures the immunoglobulin E (IgE) mediated response to allergens like dust, pollen, animal dander, mold, grass, weed, etc. The most common symptoms that may be experienced include sneezing, runny nose, itching, diarrhea, and hives. Getting tested aids in distinguishing atopic (allergen-sensitive) from non-atopic (non-allergen-sensitive) allergies and provides appropriate treatment. Identifying the allergen can help reduce further exposure to prevent allergies. However, this test does not assess the sensitivity to food, drugs, or other substances and is highly specific to inhalant allergens.

Interpreting Allergy Phadiatop Adult results
Interpretations
If your total IgE level is increased, it usually indicates that you are suffering from one or more allergies. Sometimes, increased levels are also associated with parasitic infections. An elevated IgE indicates an allergic process but does not indicate what a person is allergic to. In general, the greater the number of things a person is allergic to, the higher is the IgE level.
