This review article highlights the advantages and disadvantages of the historic standard management approach-avoidance and carrying epinephrine in case of accidental ingestion-and argues, based on accumulating evidence, that oral immunotherapy (OIT) should play a key role in preschool food allergy management. Firstly, our review will highlight pitfalls with the 'wait-and-see' approach to natural resolution of food allergies, with recent data pointing to lower resolution than previously thought. For those who do not outgrow their allergies, waiting until school age to offer OIT means missing the window of opportunity where OIT is safest, and prolongs unnecessary dietary restrictions. For those who do outgrow their allergies, research indicates they may not reintroduce the food due to fear and aversion and can become re-sensitised, putting them at risk of severe reactions. Secondly, the risks associated with allergen avoidance are higher than previously believed. Allergen avoidance is imperfect and carries an increased risk of severe reactions when compared with the risk of severe reactions while on OIT, particularly in preschoolers. Although an allergic reaction can be stressful, it is preferable to have this occur during OIT where caregivers are vigilant following a scheduled dose, rather than having this occur at a potentially unexpected time following an accidental exposure. Lastly, there is a growing body of evidence supporting favourable safety and effectiveness of OIT in preschoolers, and preliminary data suggesting higher likelihood of remission in infants. OIT has the potential to significantly improve quality of life, and future research is needed to answer this important question in preschoolers. In summary, while ongoing research will further clarify cost-effectiveness, long-term adherence and psychosocial impacts of OIT, this review suggests that OIT should play a key role in preschool food allergy management.</p>","PeriodicalId":10207,"journal":{"name":"Clinical and Experimental Allergy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143555960","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Other gastrointestinal symptoms such as constipation and gastroesophageal reflux disease have not previously been recognised as symptoms of non-IgE-mediated food allergy in food allergy guideline publications. Recently, two new consensus documents from the European Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology address a potential role of food allergens in these disorders, where standard treatment has failed, and provide guidance for diagnosis and management of these conditions. Additional updates include the World Allergy Organisation guidance on the diagnosis and management of cow's milk allergy, the most commonly implicated food in non-IgE-mediated food allergy. These documents all help practitioners to distinguish between common manifestations in infancy that are not pathologic and non-IgE-mediated food allergy. Understanding diagnostic criteria is vital to prevent overdiagnosis, limit unnecessary elimination diets and preserve breastfeeding. Conversely, proper diagnosis may reduce symptoms in infants who are affected. Therefore, the first step in management of non-IgE-mediated food allergy is establishing a correct diagnosis, which requires understanding the clinical presentations and if needed, applying an appropriate short-term diagnostic elimination diet to observe for symptom resolution, followed by food reintroduction to assess for symptom recurrence. Once diagnosed, treatment requires removal of the trigger food, most commonly cow's milk, which is not without burden and nutrition risk. Non-IgE-mediated food allergies typically resolve early in childhood with some disorders resolving in infancy therefore early reassessment for tolerance is vital. Management of non-IgE-mediated food allergy entails following diagnostic algorithms, developing an individualised dietary plan, and timely assessment of tolerance development to reduce burden and nutrition risk.</p>","PeriodicalId":10207,"journal":{"name":"Clinical and Experimental Allergy","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143467152","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
