Insect and Venom Allergies diagnosis and treatments

Premier Allergy and Asthma Centers provide bee, wasp, yellow jacket, hornet and other stinging insect allergy reactions evaluation, venom allergy testing and most importantly, effective life-saving insect allergy treatment for patients in Montgomery County, MD (Germantown, Gaithersburg, Montgomery Village, Rockville) as well as in Northern Virginia (Manassas, Manassas Park and Centerville and their surrounding areas). 

Typically, insects which generate allergic responses are either stinging insects (wasps, bees, hornets and ants) or biting insects (mosquitoes, ticks). Stinging insects inject venom, while biting insects normally introduce anti-coagulants (prevents blood clotting) into their victims.

The reactions are classified as local, large-local and true allergic reactions (which can be fatal - anaphylaxis). It is estimated that 3% of adults and 1% of children are allergic to insects and up to 100 Americans die from insect stings every year. Avoidance of insect sting may be difficult or almost impossible, especially for individuals spending a lot of time outdoors during warm seasons.

Thus, it is extremely important for people who experienced systemic reaction to insect sting to get properly evaluated, diagnosed and treated by venom allergen immunotherapy which has very high efficacy and can be life-saving.

We are proud to offer you the highest level of such services in Allergy and Asthma Clinical Centers by our board certified specialists as well as provide you with education on prevention and management of insect sting including Epipen autoinjectors.
