If you or a loved one have food allergies, make sure you check those epinephrine injectors before you hit the road to either drop off a kiddo at camp, take a family vacation or join your friends or family for a meal. Also make sure that you and your loved ones know how to use it properly. That’s the advice from James Tarbox, M.D., an allergist with Texas Tech Physicians.
Dr. Tarbox tells us what happens to someone when they’re triggered by a food allergy, explains the difference between a food allergy and food intolerance, and why we should be prepared if you or a loved one has food allergies. He also shares some upcoming good news for those who do not like needles but have allergies.
