Specializes in Pediatric Allergy and Asthma

Possible allergy: One symptom of a worsening allergic reaction may be difficulty with swallowing and controlling secretions. Please take Benadryl 25 mg x 1 and repeat in 6 hours. If you are not improved, please see a physician. Avoid common allergens and your triggers. A virtual inbox consult with Healthtap may be useful. Watch for vomiting, pain and fever. Reflux medications should be continued.
