This medication is used for the diagnosis of Arabic gum (Acacia) allergy through skin prick testing, and may be employed in allergen immunotherapy for gradual desensitization of sensitized patients.
The extract contains trace amounts of Arabic gum allergens that, when introduced to the immune system, trigger a controlled response. In diagnostic use, it reveals sensitization through localized reactions; in immunotherapy, repeated exposure aims to build immune tolerance over time.
Should only be administered by qualified healthcare professionals in settings equipped for emergency treatment of severe allergic reactions. Patient selection and dosing require careful medical assessment. Not indicated for patients with uncontrolled asthma or certain cardiovascular conditions.
