#Neffy, a needle free way to administer adrenaline has been approved by the U.S FDA. Although not yet available in the UK, this is very exciting. #allergy #anaphylaxis @RespNprang @ARNS_UK
It was very encouraging to see that just yesterday, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved #Neffy, a nasal epinephrine device, which allows for adrenaline to be administered by simply squirting it up the nose (in the event of a severe allergic reaction). This device

Why it's important an allergy focussed history is taken by a health professional who is able to interpret the results. This ensures patients aren't unnecessarily avoiding foods. If there's any doubt, this is when an oral food challenge may be useful. #allergy
This is a good time to remind ourselves that while suggestive of allergy, the presence of allergy (IgE) antibodies does not prove the clinical diagnosis of allergy. Reacting to a food or drug is more diagnostic than a “positive” allergy test alone.
