Food & Drug Allergy Evaluation
At Aloha Kids Clinic, we offer specialized Food and Drug Allergy Evaluation services aimed to diagnose and manage various food and drug-related allergic conditions in children. Our skilled practitioners include Pediatric Allergists, Immunologists and Pulmonologists, who have expertise in identifying the triggers and devising effective treatment plans tailored to each child’s needs.
Who Might Benefit from a Food and Drug Allergy Evaluation?
Children experiencing symptoms like hives, stomach cramps, vomiting, itching, or swelling after consuming certain foods or medications could be candidates for a Food and Drug Allergy Evaluation. This evaluation is also helpful for children with a history of anaphylaxis or severe allergic reactions to foods, drugs, or other substances.
What to Expect During a Food and Drug Allergy Evaluation?
The consultation will involve a detailed review of your child’s medical history, symptoms, and any previous allergic reactions. Physical examinations will be performed, and diagnostic tests such as skin prick tests, blood tests, and sometimes oral food challenges may be conducted. The aim is to pinpoint the specific foods or drugs causing the allergic reactions.
Possible Outcomes Following a Food and Drug Allergy Evaluation
Upon completion of the evaluation, a customized treatment plan will be developed. This might involve strategies to avoid the offending foods or drugs, medications like antihistamines or epinephrine auto-injectors for managing symptoms, or even desensitization therapies in certain cases. If multiple allergies or a severe reaction like anaphylaxis is confirmed, additional emergency action plans will be discussed.
Preparing Your Child for a Food and Drug Allergy Evaluation
Prepare your child by explaining the importance of the evaluation. Assure them that the aim is to help them feel better and avoid uncomfortable or dangerous symptoms. If your child is of appropriate age, encourage them to keep a symptom diary noting the foods or drugs consumed and any resultant symptoms. This information can be invaluable during the consultation.
Supporting Your Child After a Food and Drug Allergy Evaluation
Post-evaluation, your child may need to make lifestyle adjustments such as avoiding particular foods or taking medications as prescribed. Open dialogue about these changes is crucial. A supportive home environment, educational resources, and regular check-ins with the healthcare team will help your child adapt to their new routine and manage their allergies effectively.
