As discussed in this module the incidences of allergy are increasing as our lives and habits change therefore it is important that you understand the most common allergies.

There are no cures for allergies but there are effective treatments therefore it is important that you are able to provide advice to help customers manage their symptoms.

If you are a Healthy Living Pharmacy (HLP) in England, why not consider completing an ‘Allergy Awareness’ health promotion?
