Stopped: Study was stopped due to unforseen changes in clinical practice (new oral immunotherapy focus on infants and toddlers) which led to a decrease in eligible participants and failure to meet recruitement targets.
The goal of this study is to assess the efficacy of inhaled salbutamol to treat abdominal pain during food allergic reactions. Patients experiencing abominal pain as a result of a food allergic reaction during a food challenge in the allergy clinic will be invited to participate to the study. They will receive either 8 puffs of salbutamol (asthma inhaler) or 8 puffs of a placebo inhaler. The abdominal pain will then be followed using a numeric scale to see if patients receiving the medication experienced a faster improvement compared to those receiving the placebo.
