34 Practicability and safety of intralymphatic allergenspecific immunotherapy in dogs with atopic dermatitis. Hatzmann K, Mueller RS. 3 low dose i.ln. vs. 30 high dose s.c. intralymphatic allergen-specific immunotherapy is an interesting and safe alternative to subcutaneous administration. A more prominent decrease of pruritus score, CADESI (Canine Atopic Dermatitis Extent and Severity Index) and total score was noted in the trial group Vet Dermatol 2011
