AnaphylaxisWAO
Anaphylaxis Guidelines
Epinephrine has a primary role in the management of anaphylaxis Prompt
intramuscular injection of epinephrine, the first-line medication, should not be delayed by taking the time to draw up and administer adjunctive medications, such as antihistamines and
l ti id
Anaphylaxis Practice
Parameter
Epinephrine is the drug of choice for the treatment of anaphylaxis The
appropriate dose of epinephrine should be given promptly at the onset of apparent anaphylaxis
NIAID-Sponsored Expert Panel on
Food Allergy
Epinephrine is the first-line treatment in all cases of anaphylaxis When there is
suboptimal response to the initial dose of epinephrine dosing remains first-line therapy over adjunctive treatments Upon
discharge, 2 doses of epinephrine autoinjector
ICON; Food Allergy
Epinephrine is the first-line treatment for anaphylaxis Upon
discharge, 2 doses of epinephrine autoinjector should be prescribed Patients must
be educated on when and how to use the epinephrine autoinjector device
