    The allergic reaction consists of the perception of our organism as harmful of a substance that is not (allergen). This contact sets off an exaggerated immune response that manifests itself in various organs of the body.

    The most frequent allergens are: pollens, mites, animal epithelia, latex (or natural rubber, which is present in rubber gloves, tubes, catheters, balloons, pacifiers, bottle nipples, etc.), wasp stings, certain food and some medicines.
