Pediatric idiopathic anaphylaxis: experience with 22 patients.

Idiopathic anaphylaxis in the pediatric population is being increasingly recognized, with symptoms (and therefore classifications) the same as those described in adults. We present a series of 22 patients with special attention to considerations relatively unique to the pediatric population. Prednisone, hydroxyzine, and albuterol were used to control symptoms and induce remission.
