A case of food and aeroallergen sublingual immunotherapy inducing eosinophilic esophagitis
Abstract
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) has been reported secondary to aeroallergen sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) and food allergen oral immunotherapy. Gastrointestinal symptoms with food allergen SLIT are uncommon, with no prior reports of cases of food allergen SLIT inducing EoE. Here we report a patient who developed EoE secondary to food and aeroallergen SLIT therapy that resolved with SLIT cessation.
