A member asked:
How long would you stay in the hospital after having an anaphylactic reaction?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on severity: Most anaphylactic reactions would not require hospitalization unless symptoms were not responding to therapy. Most patients with a severe reaction should be observed in the er for at least 4-6 hours.
