Anaphylaxis Information           

What is Anaphylaxis?

A severe life threatening allergic reaction to food, insect bites, medication or latex.  May be exercise induced. 

Symptoms may include:

Face - Itchy eyes or nose, flushed face, swelling of tongue and lips, metallic taste

Skin - Itchiness, redness, hives, swelling of skin anywhere on the body

Throat - Itchiness, tightness, hoarseness, hacking cough, difficulty swallowing, choking

Lungs - Difficulty breathing, shortness of breath, repetitive coughing, wheezing

Stomach - Vomiting, nausea, stomach pain, diarrhea

General - Dizziness, unsteadiness, drowsiness, sense of impending doom, loss of consciousness 

What To Do:

• Administer epinephrine (adrenaline) injection immediately.  Give a second dose in 10 - 15 minutes if reaction continues or worsens
• Call 911 and tell them someone is having a life-threatening allergic reaction
• Go to the nearest hospital immediately even if symptoms subside
• Remain for observation 4 - 6 hours  

If you are at risk for anaphylaxis:
See a qualified allergist.

An injection of epinephrine could save your life, but only if you have it with you.  Carry auto-injector(s) with you at all times.  Ana-Tote and Ana-Tote Twin are versatile carrying cases for your auto-injector(s).  To protect your auto-injector from damage, water and UV rays, keep it in a Protectube or Anatube.

Wear a MedicAlert® bracelet or necklace at all times.
