Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW
To provide the most recent insights in the use of biologicals in the treatment of patients with anaphylaxis.
RECENT FINDINGS
There is evidence that biologics such as omalizumab may be safe and effective in preventing anaphylactic reactions in patients at high risk mainly because of severe food allergy or desensitization procedures to food, airborne allergen, drugs, or hymenoptera venom.
SUMMARY
Further knowledge will guide the adoption and implementation of any new therapy including biologics for anaphylaxis according to the stratification of risk/benefits.
