Hypoallergenic, meaning "below normal" or "slightly" allergenic, was a term first used in a cosmetics campaign in 1953.

It is used to describe items (especially cosmetics and textiles) that cause or are claimed to cause fewer allergic reactions.

Hypoallergenic pet breeds still produce allergens, but because of their coat type, absence of fur, or absence of a gene that produces a certain protein, they typically produce fewer allergens than other breeds of the same species may.

Some species of pets such as the pig are considered hypoallergenic as a whole, regardless of breed.

People with severe allergies and asthma may still be affected by a hypoallergenic pet.
