J Allergy Clin Immunol Pract
October 2020
Article Synopsis
- - In a 2017 trial, preschool peanut oral immunotherapy (P-OIT) was deemed safe, with mostly mild reactions and only 1 moderate case needing epinephrine.
- - A follow-up study in Canada involved 270 preschool children receiving P-OIT, where 243 reached the maintenance dose over 16 to 22 weeks, and 67.8% experienced some reactions, primarily mild.
- - The results suggest that while P-OIT is safe for most children, a small percentage (0.4%) may still experience severe reactions, highlighting the need for caution.
