title: [Food allergy. Results of a multicenter study].
abstract: A multicentre trial conducted on 38 food allergic patients has suggested the following: Food allergy is frequent in children and adults and often induces eczema and urticaria. The diagnosis is based on clinical history, cutaneous tests, RAST and challenges. A treatment with NALCRON associated, in the beginning, with a diet that excludes food allergens usually produces recovery and afterwards re-introduction of allergens, if the dosage of NALCRON is adequate.
