Apparently you put many droppers of the medication on your tongue each day, and it's supposed to relieve the allergy symptoms as well as create long term resistence to the allergen.

I'd be cautious about this.  If you have a serious allergy, you could
have a reaction to the "medication" since it contains dairy.  And if
you don't, be aware that many experts believe that with food
allergies, your reaction may get worse after each exposure, so this
intentional exposure could actually be counter-productive and make
your allergy more severe.
