Allergy Injections
CSU Health Network will work in collaboration with your allergist to provide continuity of care for your allergy shots while at CSU. Our clinic is staffed by registered nurses with training in allergy and asthma care. Please note that CSU Health Network does not provide allergy testing, prescribing, or mixing of vials.
Allergy injections are given by appointment only on Monday, Wednesday and Thursdays from 8:00am – 3:30pm and Tuesdays from 9:00am – 3:30pm. The clinic is closed for lunch daily from 12:30-1:00pm. The clinic is located on the 2nd floor of the CSU Health and Medical Center.
Transferring your allergy care
- Students must provide paperwork from their prescribing allergist which includes detailed dosage instructions and directions for delayed or missed injections.
- All allergy vials must be labeled with patient name, vial contents, dilution, and expiration date.
- We accept mailed vials from your allergist if shipped directly to the Allergy Clinic Monday through Thursday. Please be aware that we do not accept allergy vials on weekends or holidays, and we are not responsible for the integrity of the extract due to handling before we receive it.
- Allergy vials may be shipped directly to:
- CSU Health Network Allergy Clinic

Yes. If you are bringing your own allergy vials to campus, you may bring them to your first appointment or drop them off at the Allergy Clinic during normal business hours.
Students are required to wait in the allergy clinic for 30 minutes after receiving an injection and be evaluated by the allergy clinic nurse before leaving.
Students must inform the allergy clinic staff of any changes to their health, medications, or delayed reactions at each visit.
