Abstract

The article discusses the principles of the optimal allergovaccine choice for allergen-specific immunotherapy (ASIT) for grass-pollen-allergy patients; reviewed efficacy and safety studies of the standardized mixt five-grass-pollen extract. Relatively grass sensitization is preferred use mixt grass-pollen extract is thus more suitable for specific immunotherapy, as it contains a broader repertoire of the epitopes, which approximate to the natural exposure conditions.
