Codfish Oral Immunotherapy in Children Aged 2–10: Randomized Placebo‐Controlled Study
Codfish OIT significantly increased desensitization in children with fish allergy (43% vs. 11% placebo, p = 0.003), with 69% achieving 10‐fold threshold increases versus 26% in placebo (p = 0.0003). Sustained unresponsiveness remained limited (23% vs. 9%, p = 0.332). Treatment demonstrated acceptable safety with predominantly mild reactions and reduced
