The Wormwood Allergy Test is a blood test that checks for an allergic response to wormwood, a plant and common ingredient in herbal products. It is ordered when a person has symptoms such as sneezing, rash, or breathing trouble after exposure to wormwood or related plants.

What it measures

  • Wormwood-specific IgE — Amount of allergy antibody made against wormwood.
  • Total IgE — Overall level of allergy antibody in the blood.
  • Mugwort-specific IgE — Allergy antibody to mugwort, a plant closely related to wormwood.
  • Ragweed-specific IgE — Allergy antibody to ragweed, which can cross-react with wormwood.

Who it is for

A doctor or allergist may order this test if you have unexplained allergy symptoms after using wormwood or being near related plants.

Preparation

No fasting or special preparation is needed. Tell your provider about all medicines and herbal products you take.

Results and what they mean

Results are reported as a level or class for each specific IgE, often from negative to high. A clinician interprets these numbers along with your history and symptoms; a positive test alone does not confirm an allergy. This is general information, not medical advice.
