Find Relief WITH Asprin Desensitization
Sensitivity to aspirin can trigger adverse reactions, affecting the respiratory system, nasal and sinus passages, and skin. A specific form of this sensitivity, known as aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD), presents unique challenges.
The therapeutic approach for AERD involves carefully increasing the aspirin dosage over time through a process known as aspirin desensitization. The primary aim of this treatment is to achieve a level of aspirin tolerance that avoids these negative reactions.

For those experiencing severe allergies, this form of treatment can be a significant consideration. Providing a sense of security even when an epinephrine pen isn’t immediately available.
A recent study reported that of those AERD patients who were able to continue aspirin desensitization treatment for more than one year, 87% experienced benefit.
Asprin desensitization can provide treatment for common concerns
Aspirin serves as a common remedy for relieving pain, reducing fever, and alleviating minor aches, with an estimated 29 million Americans incorporating aspirin into their daily healthcare regimen. Additionally, it’s a preventive measure for individuals with heart conditions or those at an elevated risk of heart disease and strokes, as it prevents the formation of blood clots that can obstruct blood vessels.
However, not everyone can tolerate aspirin or medications containing aspirin. Some individuals experience adverse effects upon consumption, presenting as respiratory issues or skin reactions, including itchy rashes or hives. This condition is known as aspirin sensitivity.
Benefits of aspirin desensitization include:
- Reduced nasal/sinus and asthma symptoms.
- Reduced reliance on medication.
- Reduced need of professional help for asthma.
- Reduced need for sinus surgery.
- Improved quality of life.
