Introduction

Thank you for choosing the LloydsPharmacy Allergy Reliever. 
A number of people in the UK suffer from allergic rhinitis and/or 

hayfever. The suffering is often a lot worse in the summer months 

due to the presence of pollen and sufferers can become desperate 

to relieve the symptoms of their allergies.
These symptoms are caused by the body’s reaction to allergens. 

When the body comes into contact with allergens (e.g. pollen, dust, 

pet hair), it produces increased amounts of antibodies which cause 

certain cells to release histamine. It is histamine that triggers the 

symptoms of allergic rhinitis and/or hayfever.
The LloydsPharmacy Allergy Reliever works by using phototherapy 

of two specific wavelengths to gently relieve the symptoms of 

allergic rhinitis. 

The LloydsPharmacy Allergy Reliever can be used alone or 

alongside your normal allergy medication.
Before using the LloydsPharmacy Allergy Reliever, please read this 

user manual carefully.
