Summary
Abstract: An overview of the symptoms, diagnosis, immunology and management of patients with allergies to milk is presented. As identical symptoms of milk allergy can be elicited by foods other than cow's milk, factual data on allergic reactions to milk are compiled to facilitate early recognition by pediatricians. These topics are addressed: epidemiology; composition of cow's milk; pathogenesis; manifestations; diagnosis; differential diagnosis; management; and prognosis. A final chapter discusses the role of breastfeeding in prevention of milk allergy. Appendices include milk-free recipes for milk-sensitive patients and reference tables comparing the composition of different milks and infant formulas.
