Abstract (provisional)
Background A patient’s knowledge of his/her allergic condition and treatment is a key factor in adherence and effectiveness.
Methods To assess patients’ understanding of allergy and acceptance of allergen immunotherapy on the basis of (i) information given by their physician at the time of prescription and (ii) a new communication template viewed some months later, we performed an Internet-based survey of patient panels in France, Germany, Spain, the USA and Russia.
