Allergy Emergency Action Steps
Allergy emergency action steps—epinephrine, emergency call, monitoring—follow your signed plan because second reactions can occur after initial relief.
Allergy emergency action steps follow your written plan—recognize worsening symptoms, administer epinephrine without delay when indicated, call emergency services, lay person flat with legs raised unless vomiting, and go to hospital even if injection helped. Second reactions can occur hours later; do not leave without observation.
Bystanders should know where injectors live in bags and classrooms.
Common questions
-
Can you go home if you feel fine after epinephrine?
Emergency plans usually require hospital observation because biphasic reactions happen. Follow your clinician's discharge instructions, not only how you feel in the parking lot.
