Slow oral immunotherapy for cow's milk allergy with anaphylaxis to extensively hydrolyzed formula

Year: 2019

Type: article

Abstract: Cow's milk (CM) is a common allergen present in immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated food allergy in children. The management of CM allergy (CMA) requires the replacement of milk protein with alternative protein and calcium sources. Extensively hydrolyzed formulas (eHFs) are alternative, hypoallergenic formulas that are recommended as standards for children with CMA.1 IgE-mediated immediate reactions to eHFs, such as life-threatening anaphylaxis, rarely occur.2 Patients with hyperresponsiveness to eHFs may be at a high risk because they are on a complete elimination diet.
