receptors causes itching, swelling, dilation of blood vessels, narrowing of airways,
headaches, etc.
Cetirizine in Analergin and Levocetirizine in Analergin Neo are
antihistamines, which act by binding to H1 receptors, which are
are found in the body, mainly in blood vessels, smooth muscle and also on

Allergies

An allergy is an exaggerated, disproportionate reaction of an individual's immune system to an otherwise
harmless substances, so-called. allergens commonly found in the environment. These
substances are well tolerated by the majority of the population, but not by an allergic person.
The body of the allergic person perceives these substances as dangerous and resists them. Due to the allergen
there is inadequate activation of antibodies specific for the allergic reaction -
immunoglobulin E (IgE) and these specific antibodies trigger an inflammatory immune
reaction - allergic inflammation. An increase in the amount of these antibodies in the blood is one
of the main evidence of allergy. The manifestations of allergy are very varied, starting with rhinitis,
sneezing, itchy eyes or skin, and possible anaphylactic shock.
The number of allergic patients is increasing worldwide. It is estimated that more than
1/3 of the population in the Czech Republic suffers from some type of allergy. Allergy is
genetically determined. It is reported that 60% of the population carries a congenital
predisposition to the development of allergic disease. However, the disease is usually
will only become apparent through the influence of the external environment. The first manifestations of allergy often occur as early as
in children, but its manifestations can occur at any age, or conversely
may not occur at all. The course of allergy is very individual. Many manifestations
Allergies can be treated effectively, and usually this treatment is long-term.

Causes of allergy

It seems that with the increasing level of civilization there are more and more allergy sufferers. In addition to genetics, there is
of the factors contributing to the development of allergies, pollution is considered to be the most important
environment, lifestyle (too much time in enclosed spaces,
lack of exercise in nature, excessive hygiene) and eating habits
(lack of vegetables, consumption of semi-finished products, etc.). A known risk
a factor is maternal smoking during pregnancy and after the birth of the child. Premature
inclusion of complementary foods in the infant's diet is also one of the important factors for
the development of food allergies.

Is allergy hereditary?

Allergic disease as such is not hereditary. With a genetic predisposition
we are born to develop allergies, but it is the encounter with the allergen that makes us allergic.
The hereditary tendency to develop allergies is called atopy. So it is not
about the disease. An atopic person is a person with a predisposition to allergies who tends to
to the production of IgE antibodies in response to even low doses of certain otherwise well
tolerated, external allergens. However, atopics may never develop allergies.
Knowing the prevalence of allergies in the family, we can determine the approximate risk of allergy
in children:
If neither parent is allergic, the risk of allergy in children is approximately 20%.
If one of the parents is allergic, the risk increases proportionally to 40%. If she is allergic
mother, the risk of transmitting an allergic disease to the child is about 4 times higher.
If both parents are allergic, the risk increases to 75-80%.
