The first available peanut allergy treatment, “Palforzia,” which is available through our office, and oral immunotherapy to other foods is performed using similar proven protocols. Oral immunotherapy raises the threshold at which an allergic individual will react to accidental exposure to the food, providing a safety margin against accidental ingestion. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5fdc5a0992ca541fde2d24/1697678637697-RJFV1T92N1OQ2EMF602D/image-asset.jpeg Food Allergy Treatment Trumbull, Fairfield - EARLY PEANUT ORAL IMMUNOTHERAPY Now Available We are pleased to offer early peanut oral immunotherapy (EPOIT) and early tree nut oral immunotherapy (ETNOIT) in very young children, starting in infancy. We are one of very few practices in the area offering this important treatment option in this age group. As with older children, early oral immunotherapy raises the threshold at which an allergic child will react to accidental exposure to the food, providing a safety margin against accidental ingestion. Young children have been found to have even better outcomes from oral immunotherapy, and there is a higher chance of true sustained tolerance to peanut and tree nuts. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f5fdc5a0992ca541fde2d24/1601479818983-BZMHPSURWOURER7EONSK/pexels-august-de-richelieu-4259140.jpg Food Allergy Treatment Trumbull, Fairfield - CONTACT US TODAY Schedule A Consultation Call us today at (203) 259-7070 to schedule a consultation to determine if one of our food allergen desensitization programs will meet the needs of you or your family member today.
