A hayfever injection is a corticosteroid treatment sometimes used for severe seasonal allergic rhinitis when standard treatments have not provided sufficient relief.
It contains triamcinolone, sometimes referred to as Kenalog, which works by reducing inflammation caused by the body’s allergic response to pollen.
Because this is a prescription treatment, suitability must always be assessed by a doctor first.
Hayfever injections are not suitable for everyone.
During your consultation, your doctor will review your medical history carefully before deciding whether treatment is appropriate.
This treatment may not be suitable if you:
If treatment is not appropriate, alternative options can be discussed.
Like all medical treatments, hayfever injections carry potential risks and should be prescribed carefully.
A consultation is essential before treatment is offered. Your doctor will assess your symptoms, review current medications, discuss relevant medical history, and explain both the potential benefits and possible risks.
Potential side effects vary between individuals and may include temporary discomfort at the injection site, flushing, sleep disturbance, mood changes, raised blood sugar, or other steroid related effects.
Patient safety always comes first, and treatment is only offered where clinically appropriate.
Your appointment begins with a medical consultation with an experienced doctor.
This includes a detailed discussion about your symptoms, how long they have been affecting you, what treatments you have already tried, and your medical history.
A clinical assessment is then carried out to determine whether a hayfever injection is appropriate.
If treatment is suitable, the injection can often be given during the same appointment.
The procedure itself is straightforward and usually takes only a few moments. Patients are monitored afterwards in line with standard clinical safety procedures.
If an injection is not appropriate, your doctor may discuss alternative treatment options depending on your symptoms and medical history.
