Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best treatment for a food allergy?

Food allergy care is individualized, but a typical plan includes strict allergen avoidance, label education, and an emergency action plan (including epinephrine for severe reactions). For some patients, an allergist may also discuss desensitization options such as Oral Immunotherapy (OIT). Source: AAAAI

At NY Food Allergy & Wellness, Dr. Atul Shah evaluates your history, test results, and goals to determine which options may be appropriate, including whether OIT or SLIT is a fit. The goal is to improve day-to-day confidence and reduce risk from accidental exposures. Results and timelines vary by patient.

How long does it take to build tolerance to a food allergen?

There is no “fast” timeline. When used, immunotherapy approaches (such as OIT) can take months or longer, and they are not considered a cure. These therapies also do not replace emergency treatment for anaphylaxis. Source: Mayo Clinic

If you are exploring desensitization, NY Food Allergy & Wellness can walk you through realistic milestones, safety considerations, and what day-to-day life can look like during treatment. The focus is progress that is monitored, structured, and appropriate for your situation.

Is anyone working on long-term solutions for food allergies?

Yes. Researchers are actively studying multiple approaches, including medications and immune-based therapies, to reduce reactions and improve protection against accidental exposures. Source: NIAID (NIH)

While research continues to evolve, NY Food Allergy & Wellness focuses on evidence-based evaluation and treatment options available today, and we stay informed as new therapies and guidance emerge.

What over-the-counter medicine can help mild food allergy symptoms?

For mild symptoms limited to one body area, an H1 antihistamine may be recommended by your clinician. Antihistamines do not treat anaphylaxis and are not a substitute for epinephrine when severe symptoms are present. Source: FARE

NY Food Allergy & Wellness can help you understand what “mild vs severe” looks like, when to use epinephrine, and how to build a clear action plan. If you have had concerning reactions, do not self-manage, get evaluated.
