What type of allergy does the Rast Indoor panel test for?

The Rast Indoor panel is specifically designed to test for indoor allergens, which include substances commonly found within homes and buildings, such as dust mites, pet dander, mold spores, and other similar environmental triggers. This test is particularly useful for individuals who may exhibit allergic reactions to these types of allergens.

Understanding the context of indoor allergies is crucial for proper diagnosis and management of allergic conditions. By targeting indoor allergens, the Rast Indoor panel helps healthcare providers determine the specific sensitivities of a patient, allowing for more effective treatment options to reduce exposure and alleviate allergic symptoms. This distinguishes it from options related to food allergies, outdoor allergens, and seasonal allergies, which involve different triggers and testing parameters.
