Anaphylaxis is a a severe allergic reaction. How allergists manage anaphylaxis and how they advise their patients to manage anaphylaxis can mean the difference between life or death. That medical decision-making needs to be shared and have a foundation of evidence.

In this episode of the podcast, Dr. Alice Hoyt discusses the newest updates to the Anaphylaxis Practice Parameters, which were published in late 2023. You'll learn the data on:

• When and how to best administer epinephrine
• When you should go to the ER
• The likelihood of a severe allergic reaction occurring in babies after their first ingestion of an allergen
• When it may be safe to stay home
