Disappearance of severe oral allergy syndrome following omalizumab treatment.

Disappearance of severe oral allergy syndrome following omalizumab treatment. Eur Ann Allergy Clin Immunol. 2017 May;49(3):143-144 Authors: Asero R Abstract Summary: The first case of disappearance of apple-induced oral allergy syndrome in a birch pollen-allergic patient following omalizumab treatment is reported. This observation in a case of type 2 food allergy suggests that omalizumab is potentially an effective preventive treatment for patients with severe, type 1 food allergies.
