{{Top|leg}}
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.<ref name="TOFJ:TFOTSE">''[[Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi — The Fall of the Sith Empire]]''</ref>

==Examples==
*[[Mynock/Legends|Mynocks]] had a fatal allergy to [[Helium/Legends|helium]].
*The [[Pui-ui]] were known to have a fatal allergy to [[perigen]].<ref>{{EGCite|D|2-1B Surgical Droid}}</ref>
*[[Gil Bastra]] had developed a fatal allergic reaction to [[Bacta/Legends|bacta]] after being treated with a [[Lot ZX1449F|contaminated batch]]. The allergy finally killed him, after he was immersed in [[Bacta tank/Legends|bacta tank]] after [[Galactic Empire/Legends|imperial]] interrogation.
*[[Ton Phanan]] (ironically, a [[Doctor/Legends|doctor]]) was also allergic to bacta, therefore he had to replace any wounded piece of his body with [[Cybernetics/Legends|cybernetics]].
*[[Tharil Tavira]] also had a fatal allergic reaction with bacta.
*[[Dilonexican]]s had an allergy to foods with too many trace metals, due to their planet's deficiency of them.<ref name="LCFO">''[[Lando Calrissian and the Flamewind of Oseon]]''</ref>
