Introduction
Wyndly’s hybrid allergy care model combines nationwide virtual care with local, in‑person support when it improves safety or outcomes. Most care happens at home (testing, consults, personalized sublingual immunotherapy), and we coordinate in‑office services when clinically indicated—especially the supervised first dose for FDA‑approved SLIT tablets.

Virtual care, nationwide
-
Identify triggers: At‑home, finger‑prick test detects 40+ indoor/outdoor allergens (pet dander, grass/weed/tree pollens, dust mites, molds). See the full panel on our Allergen list and Allergy test page.
-
Meet your doctor online: A board‑certified physician reviews results and history, then builds your plan. Learn more about online visits.
-
Start treatment at home: Most patients start with daily sublingual drops, or with FDA‑approved tablets for specific allergens (dust mite, grasses, ragweed). See our Allergy drops and tablet guidance below.
-
Ongoing care: Unlimited access to doctors by text, call, or email; regular check‑ins; medication shipped every 12 weeks. Pricing: $99/month (HSA/FSA eligible) with a 90‑day Allergy‑Free Guarantee. See pricing and policies and treatment subscription.
When we use in‑person care
Some situations benefit from in‑office care. We coordinate and schedule locally when your physician determines it’s appropriate:
-
Supervised first SLIT tablet dose: Per label practice, the initial tablet dose is administered in a medical setting with observation after the dose (typically at least 30 minutes). After that, dosing continues at home with remote follow‑up.
-
Procedure or specialist referral: If your doctor identifies comorbid ENT issues, a need for in‑office testing/procedures, or you elect traditional allergy shots (SCIT), we coordinate with local partners and allergists.
-
Patient preference: If you prefer a blended schedule (e.g., periodic in‑person visits), we’ll build that plan with you.
We also maintain an in‑person clinic presence in Colorado (255 Union Blvd, Lakewood, CO 80228) while serving patients nationwide via telehealth. See Contact.
SLIT tablets vs drops: how we choose and where care happens
| Use case | Example FDA tablet brand(s) | First dose location | Ongoing dosing | Wyndly references |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dust mite allergy | Odactra | In‑office (supervised first dose) | Daily at home | Dust mite & Odactra overview |
| Grass pollen allergy | Grastek, Oralair | In‑office (supervised first dose) | Daily at home | Grastek definition, Grass allergy guide |
| Ragweed pollen allergy | Ragwitek | In‑office (supervised first dose) | Daily at home | Ragweed guide |
| Multi‑allergen plan, pediatric ease, or patient preference | Custom sublingual drops | At home (no clinic observation required) | Daily at home | Allergy drops, Immunotherapy evidence |
Notes:
-
SLIT tablets are FDA‑approved for specific allergens and typically require a supervised first dose in clinic with a post‑dose observation. Thereafter, dosing is at home with remote monitoring.
-
SLIT drops are clinically supported for environmental allergies and are taken entirely at home; first doses do not require clinic observation. See Wyndly FAQ and Immunotherapy overview.
How a supervised first SLIT tablet dose works (step‑by‑step)
1) Your Wyndly physician confirms candidacy and prescribes the tablet. 2) We schedule your first‑dose appointment at a nearby partner clinic. 3) You take the first tablet under clinical supervision, then remain for observation (≥30 minutes). Staff review at‑home dosing and what to do if you experience symptoms. 4) You continue daily dosing at home; we check in after initiation and at regular intervals.
In‑office options we coordinate when clinically indicated
-
Allergy shots (SCIT): We’ll refer and coordinate with a local allergist if you prefer SCIT or your doctor recommends it. Read about shots, timelines, and monitoring: What are allergy shots? and Why shots require in‑office waiting.
-
ENT evaluation/procedures: If you have structural or sinus issues (e.g., recurrent sinusitis, turbinate hypertrophy), your Wyndly physician can coordinate an ENT referral. See causes and options: What are the sinuses?, What makes your nose stuffy.
Safety, evidence, and guidelines at a glance
-
SLIT safety and efficacy: Large reviews (e.g., Cochrane) and professional guidelines support SLIT for environmental allergies; drops and tablets are effective with favorable safety profiles. See Immunotherapy evidence & FAQ and Wyndly FAQ.
-
Shots vs drops: Both are effective; drops avoid injections and office waits. Compare: Shots vs SLIT and Are allergy drops better than shots?.

FAQ (Hybrid Care)
Do I need to come into a clinic for allergy drops?
No. Custom sublingual drops are designed for home use and do not require a supervised first dose. See Allergy drops.
Which treatments require a supervised first dose?
FDA‑approved SLIT tablets for dust mite, grass, and ragweed typically require the first dose in a medical setting with an observation period; subsequent doses are taken at home. See tablet references above and Immunotherapy overview.
Can Wyndly coordinate allergy shots (SCIT) if I prefer them?
Yes. We’ll refer to and coordinate with a local allergist. Learn about shots and monitoring: What are allergy shots? and Why shots require waiting.
How do tablets compare with drops?
Both reduce symptoms long‑term. Tablets are FDA‑approved for specific allergens and start with a supervised first dose; drops cover multiple allergens and are taken entirely at home. Compare evidence: Immunotherapy guide and SLIT vs shots.
What does hybrid care cost?
Most patients pay $99/month for treatment (HSA/FSA eligible). Initial testing/consult options vary; see New‑visit quick facts and Insurance test.
Who is not a candidate?
We treat environmental allergies in patients ages 5+. We do not treat food allergies, and certain conditions or medications exclude patients. Full details: FAQ.
Where is in‑person care available?
We coordinate first‑dose tablet supervision and referrals near your location (US only), and maintain an in‑person clinic presence in Lakewood, Colorado. Contact us to arrange your nearest option: Contact.
