Treatment for Reptile Allergy

Treatment for reptile allergies typically involves avoiding contact with reptiles and their environments, such as tanks and bedding. Over-the-counter antihistamines can relieve symptoms like sneezing and itching. For more severe reactions, a doctor may prescribe corticosteroids or recommend allergy shots (immunotherapy) to help your body build tolerance over time. Keeping your home clean and free of dust can also reduce symptoms. If you suspect you have a reptile allergy, consulting an allergist for proper testing and tailored advice is essential.
