Screenings > Allergy Test Package
An allergy disorder causes the body to become hypersensitive to ordinarily harmless substances, including medicines, foods, inhalants, insects, and household products.
Drawing on over 26 years of medical expertise, our clinics ensure patients fully understand their diagnoses, explore all treatment options, and have every question answered.
At City Walk-in Clinic, we offer a comprehensive Allergy Panel blood test designed to help you identify the substances your body may be reacting to, with a clear report and guidance on next steps. Our testing process is private, professional, and tailored to your needs.
Our Allergy Panel package is one of the most extensive tests available, covering a broad range of common allergens in a single blood test:
Each result is reviewed by our experienced clinicians, helping you and your care team understand which substances may be contributing to your symptoms.
Allergy testing may be suitable if you:
We can also advise on further testing or management options based on your individual health profile.
Allergic reactions are usually rapid and can trigger an inflammatory response that ranges from uncomfortable to dangerous. Food allergies can cause serious reactions, but also diarrhoea, itching, nausea, abdominal pain and headaches.
You might not realise the cause of your symptoms as they are not immediate or are ongoing. Other allergies, such as inhalants, can cause respiratory problems and exacerbate existing conditions such as asthma.
Our allergy testing is performed via blood samples sent to a leading laboratory for comprehensive analysis, with no hidden costs.
Allergy testing accurately identifies specific allergens that cause allergic reactions in an individual. This precise identification is crucial for effective management and treatment of allergies.
Once the allergens are identified, healthcare providers can develop personalised treatment plans. These may include avoidance strategies, medications, or immunotherapy, tailored to the individual’s specific allergic triggers.
By knowing exactly what triggers an allergic reaction, individuals can take proactive steps to avoid those allergens, significantly reducing the risk of severe reactions such as anaphylaxis.
An estimated 10% to 30% of the global population has an allergic disease. This wide range indicates the commonality of allergies worldwide.
In allergy testing studies, food sensitisation detection rates can reach 95% in tested individuals, with common allergens including peanuts, eggs, and soy.
One UK survey found self-reported food allergy rates as high as 15%, which is significantly higher than rates reported from clinical diagnoses by doctors.
Allergy testing plays a crucial role in the management of anaphylaxis, a severe allergic reaction. Early identification of allergens can be life-saving in such cases.
Allergies are the immune system’s hypersensitive responses to substances that are generally harmless to most people. These substances, known as allergens, can include pollen, dust mites, mold, pet dander, certain foods, and insect stings.
When a person with an allergy comes into contact with an allergen, their immune system reacts as though it is a harmful invader, releasing chemicals like histamine. This reaction can cause symptoms ranging from mild, such as sneezing and itching, to severe, such as difficulty breathing and anaphylaxis. Allergies can affect anyone, regardless of age, and can develop at any time in life. They are diagnosed through various tests, including skin prick tests, blood tests, and elimination diets.
