Abstract
An allergy testing system, for testing a patient for a plurality of allergies at substantially the same time, comprises a housing containing a plurality of packages or capsules containing an allergen and a needle, the needles being spaced apart from each other. The needles preferably carry the respective allergies on their tips. The housing is placed against the skin of a patient and an actuator is operated to engage the packages to move the needles to pierce or prick the skin of the patient, thereby applying the respective allergens to the pierced or pricked skin of the patient.
