Description

Food protein-induced enterocolitis [en-ter-oh-kuh-LAI-tuhs] syndrome (FPIES) is an immune reaction in the gut to one or more specific foods. The common symptoms are extreme vomiting and diarrhea. Almost any food can cause an FPIES reaction. FPIES reactions often show up when an infant is exposed to a food for the first time. Over time, FPIES can result in poor growth from malabsorption and chronic diarrhea. When the problem food(s) is removed from the diet, all FPIES symptoms clear up. This guide covers:

• FPIES signs and symptoms
• Treating FPIES
• Common FPIES triggers
• Diagnosing FPIES
• Managing FPIES
