Anaphylaxis Online Course

Anaphylaxis (also known as anaphylactic shock) is a severe potentially fatal allergic reaction. It is your body's immune system reacting badly to the presence of a foreign object (e.g food or a substance) it wrongly perceives as a threat.

Your whole body is affected, usually within minutes of contact with an allergen but sometimes the reaction can take place hours later. There is a sudden drop in blood pressure and narrowing of the airways. Anaphylactic shock can lead to death due to obstructed breathing or extremely low blood pressure
