An allergy is a disorder of the immune system which causes an exaggerated response within the body when you come into contact with a foreign substance – one that would be harmless for most people. The contact can be with your skin, mouth, gullet (oesophagus), stomach, intestine or with the lining of your lungs. Substances in the environment that cause the response are known as allergens, and someone who suffers a response to a particular allergen is said to be allergic to it. If you’re allergic to a particular allergen, you may suffer from a mild cough or a sneeze attack – but for others the symptoms can be much more severe and can even lead to death. Almost any substance can be an allergen for someone. Allergies are generally the body’s way of eliminating something it considers unsuitable. Allergies are responsible for many illnesses, especially in young children. If you think you have an allergy, you must contact your doctor. Taking Galpharm Cetirizine Hydrochloride can also help to relieve the symptoms of these allergies.
