Why Aller-Tox?

This treatment aims to reduce common allergy symptoms including:
  • Persistent sneezing
  • Runny or dripping nose
  • Nasal congestion
  • Irritation within the nasal passages
For individuals who struggle with seasonal allergies or chronic rhinitis, Aller-Tox may offer longer-lasting symptom relief compared with daily medications such as antihistamines or nasal sprays.

How Aller-Tox Works

The exact mechanism of Aller-Tox is still being studied. Current understanding suggests that Botulinum Toxin Type A may help reduce the nerve signals involved in triggering nasal allergy symptoms. By interrupting these signals within the nasal lining, the treatment may reduce:
  • excessive nasal secretions
  • irritation and inflammation
  • the reflex responses that cause sneezing and congestion
Botulinum toxin has a long medical safety record and is widely used in a variety of medical treatments. Intranasal use has been explored as an option for managing allergic rhinitis and rhinorrhoea.

Who May Benefit From Aller-Tox?

You may be suitable for Aller-Tox if you:
  • suffer from hay fever or pollen allergies
  • experience chronic rhinitis symptoms
  • struggle with persistent nasal congestion or a runny nose
  • have not achieved adequate relief from antihistamines or nasal sprays
  • prefer an alternative to daily allergy medication
Aller-Tox is typically considered after other treatment options have been explored.

When Will I Notice Results?

Some patients notice improvement within a few days.

Symptom relief may continue to develop over the first week following treatment as the nasal tissues respond.

Duration of benefit varies from patient to patient. On average many patients experience relief for several weeks following treatment, depending on their individual allergy triggers and severity.

What happens during Treatment?

Your appointment begins with a consultation where your practitioner will:

  • review your medical history
  • discuss your allergy symptoms
  • confirm whether Aller-Tox is suitable for you

The treatment itself is quick and straightforward.

The medication is delivered into each nostril using a small nasal atomiser. The procedure takes only a few seconds on each side and is generally painless.

You will then remain in a reclined position for around 5–10 minutes so the medication can remain within the nasal passages.

Most patients return to normal activities immediately after treatment.

How Many Treatments Will I Need?

The number of treatments depends on the severity of your allergies and the timing of pollen exposure.

Some patients choose to repeat treatment during peak pollen seasons.

Pollen exposure in the UK generally follows this pattern:

  • Tree pollen: March to May
  • Grass pollen: May to July
  • Weed pollen and spores: June to September 

Your practitioner will help you plan treatment timing appropriately.

Preparing For Your Appointment

To prepare for your Aller-Tox appointment, you may be advised to clear your nasal passages beforehand.

Using a saline nasal spray approximately 30–60 minutes before treatment may help prepare the nasal lining.

Your practitioner will provide personalised advice during your consultation.

Aftercare Advice

After treatment, simple aftercare is recommended.

Patients are usually advised to:

  • avoid using nasal sprays for 24 hours
  • contact the clinic if they have questions or require support

Your practitioner will provide full aftercare guidance following your appointment.

Important Medical Information

Aller-Tox uses Botulinum Toxin Type A in an intranasal format.

This use of the medication is considered off-label, meaning it is not specifically licensed for treating allergic rhinitis or hay fever.

Off-label prescribing is a recognised medical practice where clinicians use an approved medicine in a different way when clinical judgement indicates it may benefit the patient.

A full consultation and medical assessment will always be carried out before treatment is offered.
