Abstract

An allergy treatment that combines graphical indicia and medicinal dosages in at least three logically related physical formats, according to at least three medically related clinical steps. The first physical format, in reference to Step 1, presents a plurality of categories of queries regarding allergenic substances and conditions. The second physical format, in reference to Step 2, presents a plurality of categories of actions regarding recommendations for allergy avoidance. The third physical format, in reference to Step 3, presents one or more categories of medicinal dosages in one or more logically related physical regions, which are accompanied by a set of instructions. The arrangement is a program of artificial intelligence in which the patient is enabled by medical expertise: to select pertinent allergenic factors which are defined by the queries presented in Step 1; to select pertinent salutary recommendations which are defined by the actions presented in Step 2; and to implement or avoid the medicinal regimen that is provided and defined by the modules and indicia presented in Step 3. The steps together provide interrelated records for current and future evaluation.
