Hay fever is a common allergic disease caused by an overreaction of the immune system to certain allergens such as pollen, grass or mould. Symptoms range from itchy eyes and runny nose to severe breathing problems and asthma.
In Germany, around 15 million people suffer from hay fever. But the disease is also widespread on Mallorca. Fortunately, there are now German-speaking doctors here, like our team at Allmedica Andratx, who specialise in the treatment of hay fever.
Thanks to our many years of experience in the treatment of allergies, we offer our patients comprehensive diagnostics and therapy.
Vitamin D with magnesium citrate
An innovative form of therapy used by the team at Allmedica Andratx in the treatment of hay fever is the high-dose administration of vitamin D with magnesium citrate. This combination has proven to be extremely effective as it reduces the activation of mast cells and thus inhibits the release of histamine, which is responsible for the allergic reactions.
Antihistamines
In addition to vitamin D therapy, our German doctors on Mallorca also prescribe antihistamines to relieve symptoms. These drugs block the action of histamine in the body and can reduce itching, sneezing and runny nose.
Corticoids
In severe cases, short-term treatment with corticosteroids may also be needed to reduce the inflammatory response in the body. However, these medications should only be used under a doctor’s supervision, as they can also have side effects.
Preventive measures
The importance of preventive measures such as avoiding allergens and eating a healthy diet to strengthen the immune system should not be underestimated.
