Standardized Cat Hair Extracts are indicated for the diagnosis of patients with a history of allergy to cats and for treatment of patients with cat allergy. Diagnosis of allergic disease to cat hair is made through a combined medical history sufficiently complete to identify allergic symptoms to cat hair and identification of cat allergy by diagnostic skin testing. Hyposensitization therapy is a treatment for patients exhibiting allergic reactions to cat. Immunotherapy is intended for patients whose symptoms cannot be satisfactorily controlled by avoidance of the offending allergen or by the use of symptomatic medications. (5)
