Acarizax

Acarizax is designed to treat allergic symptoms such as rhinitis (nasal allergy) and asthma symptoms caused by house dust mites. The tablets are placed under the tongue to slowly expose the immune system to mite allergens and build long-term tolerance.

Benefits

• Reduces nasal symptoms (runny nose, sneezing, congestion) due to dust mite allergy.
• May relieve mild to moderate allergic asthma triggered by dust mites.
• Aim is to lower the overall need for allergy medications over time.
• Taken daily at home, offering a convenient alternative to allergy shots.

Dosage

• One tablet (12 SQ) placed under the tongue once daily.
• Let the tablet dissolve completely (do not chew or swallow immediately).
• Avoid eating or drinking for at least 5 minutes before and after taking each dose.

Warnings and Precautions

• Not for use in individuals with severe, uncontrolled asthma.
• May cause mild local reactions in the mouth or throat—these are usually minor and temporary.
• Rarely, more severe allergic reactions can occur—seek medical help if wheezing, chest tightness, or swelling develop.
• Inform your doctor if you have active mouth sores, tonsillitis, or take immunosuppressive medication.
• Not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding unless clearly necessary.

Usage Instructions

• Place the tablet under your tongue and let it dissolve fully (typically 1–2 minutes).
• Do this daily, at roughly the same time, for the prescribed duration.
• Carry your prescribed emergency medicine (e.g., antihistamine or epinephrine) if advised.
• Regular follow‑up appointments are recommended to monitor response and safety.

Storage Information

• Store at room temperature (15 °C to 25 °C).
• Keep tablets in the original blister pack until ready to take—this protects them from moisture.
• Store out of reach of children.
• Do not use after the expiry date on the packaging.

Mild to moderate effects: itching or tingling under the tongue or in the throat, mild mouth swelling, stomach upset, or rash.
