Successful Introduction of Peanut in Sensitized Infants With Reported Reactions at Home
These data show that 65% of infants with reported reactions to peanut at home have negative OFCs. In those children, peanut could be introduced safely, and 96% were able to consume peanut regularly without reactions. Challenging infants younger than 12 months prevents the misdiagnosis of peanut allergy and enables safe continued exposure to peanut and the induction of long-term tolerance.
