Safety of Oral Food Challenges for Individuals with Low Levels of Cow’s Milk-Specific Immunoglobulin E Antibodies
Eighty percent of the patients with low CM-sIgE levels safely completed the OFC test. Nevertheless, careful observation is essential during low-dose OFC test in cases with low CM-sIgE levels, especially in the cases with complete elimination. The starting dose of the OFC test should be reevaluated, and modified using baked milk or a lower dose of CM to ensure safety and early outgrowth of CM allergy.
