The form of treatment known as immunotherapy is also called desensitization, hyposensitization, or allergy shots. Immunotherapy is used in the treatment of allergic patients with respiratory symptoms, mainly of hay fever or asthma. In this form of treatment, injections of allergenic extract are given in gradually increasing amounts of allergenic extract over a period of months. The goal is to induce a degree of tolerance to the allergens and to bring about a decline in the symptoms and the medication requirements. 1, record 3, English, - immunotherapy
