Fig E2 Median onset and duration of most frequent treatment-related AEs (experienced by ≥ 5% of subjects treated with SQ tree SLIT-tablet). Left, Median onset and duration of AE. Duration is given as time from onset until resolution (reoccurring AEs given from first to last day of appearance). Overlapping symbols indicate resolution on same day of occurrence. Right, Median onset of AE for AEs starting on the first day of treatment.
