Clinical profile

Intramuscular injection of a small volume of the patient's own venous blood, sometimes mixed with ozone. Few studies specifically on minor autohaemotherapy with ozone are in PubMed so far; there are reviews of intramuscular autologous blood injection in urticaria and eczema with mixed results.

Every statement links to a publication in the list below. This is a snapshot of published research, not a final assessment of the method: international practice and integrated protocols often run ahead of official publications. Draft based on published research; requires review by a physician. Revision: 2026-10-17.

Mechanism of action

  • The mechanisms of action of intramuscular autohaemotherapy have not been studied and require research. [1]

Where studies show an effect

  • Urticaria and atopic eczema: some evidence of effect, no firm conclusions. [1]
  • Acne and COPD: positive results from reviews of studies injecting blood into acupuncture points, with low-quality studies. [3, 4]

Open questions and study limitations

  • In chronic urticaria, differences from placebo did not reach significance in a 2019 meta-analysis. [2]

Safety

  • No significant adverse events were reported in the urticaria meta-analysis. [2]
Contraindications. Contraindications are determined by the physician according to the equipment or drug instructions; they are not given in study abstracts.

Publications were found in PubMed; titles and journals are given verbatim, conclusions are a brief summary of the abstracts under the conditions of the specific studies. The level shows the volume of published data, not the value of the method: A — Plenty of data: consistent systematic reviews and meta-analyses of RCTs; B — Some data: reviews or several RCTs, results are heterogeneous; C — Little data: single RCTs or controlled studies; D — Scarce data: mainly reviews, observational and experimental studies. The passport is updated as new work is published and with regard to international practice.
