Other causes include organisms such as dust mites and molds. Chemicals, plants and dead skin particles (33) dogs and cats can also cause allergic reactions. (34) can insect stings and some foods.
The most common kind of (35) reaction is itchy, watery eyes and a blocked or watery nose. Allergies can also (36) red, itchy skin. Some reactions can be life-threatening—for example, when breathing passages become (37).
Avoiding (38) causes an allergy may not always be easy. Antihistamine drugs (39) offer an effective treatment. Another (40) used in some cases is called immunotherapy.

People can also be allergic to medicines. The American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology says about five to ten percent of bad reactions to commonly used (48) are allergic. In other words, a person’s immune system overreacts and (49) an allergic reaction. The (50) common reactions include skin rashes, itching, breathing problems and swelling in areas such as the face.
