Description

Anaphylaxis is a serious allergic reaction that can progress rapidly. It may involve multiple body organ systems. Epinephrine is the first-line treatment for anaphylaxis. People with food allergies should have a food allergy action plan to help guide them on recognizing symptoms and prompt treatment to stop the reaction.

AAFA’s Food Allergy Emergency Care Plan provides information and instructions on how to manage an allergic reaction. It includes:

• Symptoms to watch in infants/toddlers or children ages 3 and older (including teens and adults)
• Instructions for using epinephrine
• What to do in an emergency

This emergency care plan is for children ages 3 and up. You can find a printed pack of 10 of the plan here.

You can find the food allergy emergency care plan for children under the age of 3 here (PDF, printed pack of 10).
