Does TIP treat food allergy patients with FPIES?

Although we DO treat food allergy patients who have FPIES for IgE-mediated disease, we do not treat FPIES.

Although we DO treat food allergy patients who have FPIES for IgE-mediated disease, we do not treat FPIES. Allergic reactions and anaphylaxis are primarily mediated by immunoglobulin E (IgE) and are associated with the release of mast cells and basophil immune mediators. TIP focuses on treating IgE-mediated systemic allergic diseases, while FPIES is a non-IgE-mediated condition that affects the gastrointestinal tract.

The Tolerance Induction Programâ„¢ (TIP) is specifically designed to address the needs of children with conditions such as Crohn's disease, Celiac, FPIES, or EoE. Our program utilizes comprehensive data analysis to evaluate food anaphylaxis in patients who may have additional medical conditions. Once the intake process is completed and AI diagnostics are received, our experienced medical providers at FAI will provide personalized guidance to address these specific conditions in conjunction with the Tolerance Induction Program.
