The FDA and the medical community have a long running disagreement over the concept of "compounding," and until that disagreement is more clearly resolved, the Kagen Allergy Clinic, S.C. will not use or send "compounded" allergens.I should note that when I previously commented on the issue, I wondered whether 55000 shots for 500 patients was abit excessive (110 shots per patient). A friend of mine who suffers from allergies and asthma pointed out that he sometimes would get multiple shots for different allergies weekly.
I will be continuing to work with the FDA, both as a Board Certified and fully licensed specialist in Allergy-Immunology and as a U.S. Congressman, to find ways to prevent patients from suffering from disabling symptoms of allergy.
I'm in the wrong racket.
