What to do?

Don’t Panic! This is easy to say, of course, but if you are upset, your child is more likely to panic, and this can make it harder to decide whether a reaction is severe or not.

Follow your written allergy plan.

  • Decide whether you think this is a mild or a severe reaction.
  • Give your allergy medicine or medicines
  • Get help – this may involve phoning an ambulance if the reaction is severe
