As the name suggests, the allergy comprehensive panel test package is used to test if you are allergic to anything in your immediate environment. The test package encompasses 15 tests and offers accurate results.

The roster of allergy tests on the package includes tests for some of the most common allergens in the country. As a result, you will obtain a definite diagnosis, and if you are allergic to something, it will show up in your results.

To give you a better idea, here is a list of all the allergy tests included in the above package:

  • Immunoglobulin E (Ige) Total
  • Allergy, Alternaria Alternata
  • Allergy, Milk
  • Allergy, Peanut
  • Allergy, Rice
  • Allergy, Soya Bean
  • Allergy, Tomato
  • Weed Panel allergy test
  • Tree Panel allergy test
  • Phadiatop allergy test
  • Dust Panel allergy test
  • Animal Panel allergy test 
  • Food Panel allergy test 
  • Mould Panel allergy test 
  • Grass Panel allergy test

Primarily, the test package checks your Immunoglobulin levels. IgE is an antibody released by your immune system when it detects potentially harmful substances entering your bloodstream. If immunoglobulin levels are high, then an allergic reaction is triggered. However, you must know that the IgE levels in your body will be high even if it is fighting off a dangerous infection or ailment.

Moving on, the Allergy Comprehensive Panel Test package includes not only food allergens but also inhalant and pollen allergen tests. To help you understand better, food allergies are triggered when your immune system misidentifies certain proteins present in food substances as potential threats.

On the other hand, pollen allergies are triggered by airborne allergens. Both allergies have a slightly different set of symptoms. In the case of food allergies, exposure to allergens will trigger the following reactions:

  • Dizziness
  • Swelling of the face, lips, throat, tongue, and other parts of the body
  • Abdominal pain
  • Trouble breathing  
  • Chest pain
  • Diarrhea 
  • Fainting 
  • Lightheadedness
  • Itching or tingling in the mouth

On the other hand, a wind or pollen allergy can trigger the following symptoms if you are exposed to the allergen:

  • Itchy skin
  • Anaphylaxis 
  • Hives 
  • Wheezing 
  • Facial swelling 
  • Rash, etc.

If you feel like you are exhibiting the above symptoms, then you are allergic to something in your immediate surroundings. Get Apollo 24/7’s Allergy Comprehensive Panel Test Package done at an affordable rate with sample collection right at your doorstep.

Here is a list of precautions you can take from your end if you receive a positive result for any of the above-mentioned allergy tests:

faqFrequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Are there any risks or complications associated with the Allergy Comprehensive Panel test package?

No, there are no such risks associated with the Allergy Comprehensive Panel test package. The test will either use a blood sample or a skin prick sample. In either case, the repercussions won't be much. For a blood test, a needle is pushed into your arm vein, and so you might experience some light scarring or bleeding at the point of contact with the needle. On the other hand, a skin prick test exposes a minuscule amount of allergen into your bloodstream. The test result will be positive if hives or rashes appear at the test site.

What are some of the most common allergens tested?

Some of the most commonly tested allergens are as follows: Moulds Pollen  Animal dander Cockroach droppings Food allergens (milk, peanut, rice, soya bean, tomato, etc.)

Is there any special preparation required before the Allergy Comprehensive Panel Test package?

If the list includes medication that might interfere with the test results (e.g., antihistamines), you will have to stop dosage temporarily.

What impact will vitamin C have on allergy testing?

Yes, vitamin C will tamper with the results of the allergy comprehensive panel test package. This is because it acts as a natural antihistamine and will yield false negative results.
