Identify your triggers accurately from food, dust, pets to seafood.
You Could Be Allergic Without Knowing It.
Many people live with allergies for years without realizing the root cause of their symptoms. These reactions can affect your skin, digestion, breathing, and even your energy levels all without an obvious trigger.
Watch for these common signs:
Sneezing, Sinus Pressure, or Asthma Attacks
Constant sneezing, nasal congestion, or wheezing might not just be a cold or bad air. It could be an allergic reaction to dust mites, mold, pollen, or animal dander all common in Singapore’s environment.
Stomach Pain, Bloating, or Skin Rash After Eating
If your body reacts after meals with bloating, cramps, diarrhea, or itchy skin, you may be allergic to common foods like milk, eggs, seafood, nuts, or wheat. These food allergies can appear even later in life and often go undetected.
Itchy Eyes, Runny Nose, or Cough Around Pets?
You might love your furry friend, but your immune system might not. Pet dander from cats, dogs, or even rodents can trigger respiratory issues or eczema flare-ups, especially in enclosed spaces.
Fatigue, Brain Fog, or Frequent Eczema Flare-Ups
Feeling tired all the time or waking up groggy? Allergies can cause low-grade inflammation that affects your sleep and skin. Triggers like dust, mites, or food sensitivities may silently impact your energy and skin condition.
What is a Blood Allergy Test (Specific IgE Test)?
The IgE Blood Test (also known as Specific IgE Test or ImmunoCAP) is a medical diagnostic test used to identify allergies by detecting IgE antibodies in your blood.
How It Works?
When you’re allergic to something (like peanuts, dust mites, or pollen), your immune system produces Immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies in response. The higher your IgE level to a specific allergen, the more likely your body is reacting to it.
The test process is simple:
- A small blood sample is taken.
- The sample is sent to a certified laboratory.
- The lab checks your blood for specific IgE antibodies to 1 or more allergens.
- You’ll receive a full report showing your sensitivity levels to each allergen (Class 0 to 6).

Allergic Screening
What is an IgE allergy blood test?
It’s a diagnostic test that checks your blood for IgE antibodies the immune markers responsible for allergic reactions. It helps identify if you’re allergic to specific triggers like food, dust, pets, or pollen.
Do I need to stop any medication before the test?
No. Unlike skin prick tests, the IgE blood test is not affected by antihistamines, steroids, or most medications — making it safer and more convenient.
How long does it take to get results?
Results are typically ready within 3 to 5 working days. Once available, our doctor will explain the findings and advise on next steps.
Can I choose what allergens to test for?
Absolutely. You can test for specific allergens (e.g., shrimp, peanut, dust mite) or opt for bundled panels (like food, seafood, inhalants, etc.) based on your symptoms.
Is the test painful or risky?
Not at all. The test involves a quick blood draw by a trained nurse — similar to any standard blood test. There is no exposure to allergens, making it a very safe option.
