I am interested in taking immunotherapy to help control severe allergies, but my allergist has advised me that I would have to discontinue the Ideral because of the risk of shock in the case of a hypersensitive reaction to the antigen. Dear Dave, I think it would be best that you await elective treatment of allergies until the thyroid condition is resolved and you no longer have to be on the inderal. In general Inderal is the best drug for your palpitations from the overactive thyroid, however, even the alternatives lower blood pressure to a degree that they too would be a concern for the immunologist who will be administering the immunotherapy. I hope this information is useful.
