Food Allergy Friday Newsletter
Dr. Alice Hoyt

 

Hello!

I hope you are having a great Friday!

In most of these newsletters, I am sharing with you recent food allergy news or discussing an issue that pediatricians, NPs, PAs, and/or families have asked me about. Today, I'd like to try something a little different!

I'd like to ask you what are you being asked by colleagues and families about food allergies? Especially those questions to which you might not have the most robust answer - but you would like more information. 

For the next newsletter, I will review your questions - along with a mix of questions I see on social media - and will provide evidence-based answers to these questions. 

And remember - this is food allergy. There are no silly questions!

Warmly,
Alice

Should epi be OTC?
Food Allergy Friday NewsletterDr. Alice Hoyt Hi there, I had an interesting start to my week. I visited with congressional staffers to advocate for our patients. The next day, I spoke on a panel at a meeting sponsored by the FDA. The day aimed at exploring a fascinating question... "Should epi be available OTC?"  I have my thoughts, but instead of opining here, I figured I'd just share the ses...
