Lethal Food-Induced Anaphylaxis in Children
Journal Title: Journal of Vaccines and Immunology - Year 2015, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Despite careful contributions, food allergic children have a significant risk of anaphylactic episodes. Especially at risk are children not accompanied by parents or caregivers in public places, or restaurants, or not provided with injectable epinephrine. We shortly report two children and conclude that parents should be provided with medication for emergency treatment.
