Allergy Patients New to Wardenburg:
If you want to receive allergy shots, you must schedule an initial appointment with a nurse before your first injection can be given. If you have never had an allergy shot before, you will need to have your first shot at your allergist's office.
You will need to bring the following from your allergist to your initial appointment:
- A copy of your initial medical evaluation and indications for immunotherapy (e.g., skin testing results and other medical diagnoses). Please also note whether or not you have asthma and/or any other significant diagnoses.
- A copy of your injection records noting reactions.
- Your immunotherapy build-up schedule detailing the following: the starting immunotherapy dose, the target maintenance dose, the immunotherapy schedule, instructions for late injections, and instructions for reations
- Each of your antigen vials must be clearly labeled with the following: patient name, contents, dilution, and expiration date.
- A copy of your maintenance concentrate prescription.
- A Request for Allergy Information letter is available for download to assist you with requesting these materials from your allergist.
Please be aware that you will not receive a shot on the day of your initial visit.
