Allergy Skin Testing

If you’re scheduled for allergy skin testing, please stop taking any medications that contain antihistamines, as these medications may affect your test results. This includes both over-the-counter medications as well as prescription medications. Do not discontinue any asthma medications as these do not affect skin testing.
