ALLERGY SERUMS
Personal allergy serums that have specific written physician's orders and are provided by the student may be refrigerated in the Allergy Injection room and may be administered by registered nurses or licensed practical nurses under the direction of the student's personal allergist.

Information from your allergy doctor must include concentration, vial contents, frequency of injections, expiration date of serum, and late or missed injection directions. UHS won't administer injections from inadequately labeled vials or if physician instructions are missing or incomplete.

More specific directions for students who want to receive their allergy injections at UHS are available at Allergy Clinic Directions.

COSTS
Allergy injections cost for eligible students is $10.00 per visit and $15 per visit for non-students. These fees do not include the cost of the medication.
