A targeted IgE allergy blood test assessing the most common food and environmental allergens affecting children.
£260
Results in 2–4 working days
Children often develop allergies to a different pattern of allergens than adults, with foods such as milk and egg being particularly important during early childhood alongside environmental allergens including house dust mites, pollens and pet dander. This profile measures Total IgE together with specific IgE antibodies to a carefully selected range of common childhood allergens, providing a practical first-line investigation for children with suspected allergic disease. Results are reviewed by one of our GPs and interpreted alongside your child's symptoms, medical history and growth and development where appropriate.
