Note when inserted as is

Food allergy
• History consistent with an IgE-mediated food allergy, with symptoms within 2 hours of eating the food
• Allergy testing deferred to the allergist
• Strict avoidance of the food reviewed, including label reading and cross-contact
• Prescribed Epinephrine autoinjector 2-pack for home and school, with use reviewed including calling 911
• Allergy and anaphylaxis emergency plan completed, with the current weight
• Referred to allergy for further evaluation and treatment
• Follow up as needed

Reactions can be different each time, so epinephrine is the first treatment for any serious symptom, and antihistamines do not replace it. Recommended supportive care with an emphasis on reading every label, avoiding shared utensils and cross-contact, keeping 2 epinephrine devices with the child at all times, and practicing with the trainer. A second dose can be given if symptoms continue after 5 to 15 minutes. Call 911 after any use of epinephrine; the child needs an emergency evaluation even when symptoms improve. Return precautions given including any reaction after eating, swelling of the lips or tongue, hives that spread, new symptoms, prolonged symptoms, worsening symptoms, and other concerns. Caregiver expressed understanding and agreement with plan. Answered all questions.
