It depends primarily on the use of protein hydrolyzate milk. For what causes the allergic reaction, it is certain milk proteins. But if they are cut into pieces, they become generally harmless. The problem is that these formulas are often very bitter (but the baby drinks, because it tolerates them better than normal milk!).

Therefore, there are also other protein hydrolysates of soluble casein, soy, hydrolyzed collagen (before it was beef, but with mad cow, pig he is today). For children who have problems with protein hydrolysates, it must cut them into pieces even smaller: the amino acids. Attention often requires some time between the introduction of the system of exclusion and the disappearance of allergic symptoms.

The improvement does not appear overnight. It often takes two to three weeks between the change in formula and the disappearance of digestive problems.

When reintroducing milk?

Good news for all parents of children allergic to milk is one of the disorders that usually disappears after the first year of life. It has virtually disappeared in all children before the age of 5 or 6 years. Parents can then start to consider reintroducing milk to 9 months or a year. First step: monitoring of IgE. This ensures that the risk of allergic reaction is low. Unless of course it is a non-IgE-dependent, related to a delayed allergy. In this case, the return will be a little blind (the patch-test does not assess the loss of allergy).

but under medical supervision: the doctor or nurse puts the milk on the skin, if nothing happens, it puts on the inside of the lip, and if nothing happens, we do enjoy a dairy product. If the reintroduction did not go well, you can try again three months later. If it does not, we move to a period of six months, and if the result is always negative, it retries every year.

Please note, sometimes there are delayed reactions: the reintroduction goes well, then after one to two weeks, diarrhea or other manifestations appear.In this case, it will try again later. Similarly, some children will be able to eat yogurt daily. but no more! In this case, they must leave the dairy product until they can eat more.

In most allergies, for the presence of specific antibodies (IgE), witnessed the disruption of the immune system. It passes through the skin tests (Prick Test). A Serum IgE may also be achieved.

But for milk, there are often delayed reactions, which do not depend on the same mechanism. In this case, the screening tool is the simplest patch-test is simply a kind of blotting paper soaked in milk that are stuck on baby’s skin. We leave 48 hours, and you can check for skin reaction.

Preventing  allergies?

Among infants at risk, whose family has a history of allergy (milk or other allergens), it may be useful to prevention, to avoid awareness of the child. Some experts propose to remove during pregnancy groundnut (highly allergenic foods). This measure is not based on proven scientific evidence, but strong presumptions. And then remove the peanuts during pregnancy should not cause a lot of deficiencies.

Then, it is recommended that infants are exclusively breastfed for 4 to 6 months. In this case, it is again advised the mother to avoid peanuts. But if breastfeeding is not possible, there are a range of hypoallergenic milk which can be offered (but they are more expensive and are not reimbursed.). Attention soy formulas should be avoided in children during the first six months.

Regarding supplementation, it should not occur before six months of age, and certain foods should not be introduced until sometime: not until a year for eggs and fish, and not before 4 to 5 years to peanuts and nuts (not cosmetic sweet almond either).

Sometimes difficult to diagnose this disorder is the cause of many cases of eczema and gastro-esophageal reflux.

Problems with allergies exploded in France. If the egg allergy is the most common food allergy most common in children under one year is that cow’s milk.

A difficult diagnosis

The problem with milk allergy is that it can have different manifestations, depending on the extent of the disorder. There may have immediate reactions (within two hours after ingestion of milk) with urticaria, projectile vomiting, angioedema and even anaphylactic shock in severe cases. But it may also occur forms delayed (after several hours), with digestive problems (colic pain.), But also skin and respiratory disorders. Moreover, 40% of cases of gastro-esophageal reflux in infants and an important part of eczema are caused by this allergy to milk.
