- An allergy was an affliction that several species were susceptible to. Some allergies were powerful enough that they could kill a being. Allergy paste could be used to treat allergies.
- Marvin's pet dog named Wonder Dog had an allergic reaction to almonds. And whenever he'd smell it, he would go into a sneezing fit.
- Allergy, also known as allergy diseases, are a number of conditions of hypersensitivity of the immune system to something in the environment that causes little or no problem in most people. These diseases include hay fever, food allergies, atopic dermatitis, allergic asthma, and anaphylaxis. Symptoms may include red eyes, itchy rash, shortness of breath, or swelling.
- An allergy describes any disorder where a patient has a runaway histamine response to foreign matter entering the body through the skin, digestive tract or mucous membranes. Most allergies are merely a nuisance to the patient, but some reactions can be genuinely life threatening. Almost anything can be an allergen - the source of an allergic reaction. Common allergens are: Natural substances - dust (actually the feces of dust mites), pollen, grass, mold, etc. Animals - cats (actually, their dander or sloughed off skin cells coated in saliva), dogs, horses, etc. Drugs - penicillin, etc.
- An allergy is a condition caused by exposure, inhalation, or ingestion of something that results in particular symptoms. In mainstream Smurfs media, Sickly claims to have various types of allergies. Jokey in the cartoon show episode "Calling Dr. Smurf" does have a real allergy to pink paint, which Dabbler treated with skin cream. Papa Smurf in the episode "The Sky Is Smurfing" has an allergic reaction to volcanic dust, which Brainy mistakes for having a cold.
- An allergy is something which triggers an allergic reaction. This is the immune system defending the body against attack by bacteria and viruses. Allergic reactions occur to normally harmless environmental substances known as allergens; these reactions are acquired, predictable, and rapid. On 14 February, 1993, Gilderoy Lockhart hired some dwarves to sing Valentines around Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, dressed as cupids. One of them was allergic to feathers and his fake wings made him itch.
- The body's responses could be minimal such as snoring, but could also include anaphylactic shock or even death. Allergies often had a genetic basis. They could be present from birth or could present themselves at any later point during a lifetime. In 2369, Odo told Quark that "the something" in Jadzia Dax's eye was an allergic reaction to him. (DS9: "The Passenger") Later that year Julian Bashir thought he had taken an allergic reaction to replicated antipasto and was hallucinating an affectionate Jadzia Dax. (DS9: "If Wishes Were Horses")

- An allergy describes any disorder where a patient has a runaway histamine response to foreign matter entering the body through the skin, digestive tract or mucous membranes. Most allergies are merely a nuisance to the patient, but some reactions can be genuinely life threatening. Some conditions described as allergies are actually other disorders where exposure to a certain material causes other discomfort in the patient. For example, lactose intolerance is not an allergy (it is caused by a lack of a particular enzyme used to digest the natural sugars in milk), but exhibits many of the same symptoms. Almost anything can be an allergen - the source of an allergic reaction. Common allergens are: Natural substances - dust (actually the feces of dust mites), pollen, grass, mold, etc. Animals - cats (actually, their dander or sloughed off skin cells coated in saliva), dogs, horses, etc. Drugs - penicillin, etc. Foods - peanuts, "true" nuts such as hazelnuts, etc. Insects - bee stings, mosquito stings, etc. Most allergic reactions are mild and merely result in symptoms such as a runny nose, coughing, or a skin rash. However, in some patients, the histamine response to even a minor amount of an allergen can be overwhelming and cause bronchoconstriction from anaphylactic shock, a potentially life threatening condition which can easily cause the patient to suffocate if not treated immediately.

In "Gargamel's New Job," Prince Theodore reveals that he is allergic to chicken feathers after his newly-hired Court Magician, Gargamel, accidentally summons a feather storm. Also, in the episode, "The Clumsy Genie", the prince is also allergic to feathers.
