Taking medicines is something that should not be taken lightly and, at all times, the patient should follow all the doctor’s indications, specially indications related to the dosage and the times when they should be taken.

Even though technology is always evolving and has now reached amazing levels, there are some areas where technology has not been thoroughly applied, at least not in the way we often are used to.

Suffering from hayfever? A new treatment that doesn’t involve taking
antihistamines every day for the rest of your life is in the works. It’s
called Allergia, and it’s a phototherapeutic medical device that
