Safety of food challenges is prime, and the various procedures and safety issues as well as medications potentially involved in challenges are extensively discussed. Challenges are suggested to be conducted with semi-logarithmic incremental doses based on the protein content, typically for IgE-mediated food allergy with intervals of 20-30 min between doses. Specific protocols for other types of reactions such atopic dermatitis or gastrointestinal food allergy are detailed separately. Proper stopping criteria are essential in order to reduce the risk of false-positive diagnoses, but also severe reactions.
