Oral desensitization in children with milk and egg allergies obtains recovery in a significant proportion of cases. A randomized study in 60 children with cow's milk allergy and 90 children with egg allergy.

Abstract

Oral desensitization helps the egg and milk allergic children to overcome their allergies. Since the avoidance of these foods is likely to increase sensitization as well as to lower the threshold of reactivity, an active treatment is required. Further attempts to standardize the procedures of oral desensitization are expected.
