Don't Feed the Fear: Allergy Anxiety & Trauma
#86 Biologics in Food Allergy Care: A New Era with Dr. Brian Vickery
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, Dr. Brian Vickery of Emory University joins the podcast to discuss biologics in food allergy treatment.
As research advances, biologics are emerging as both standalone therapies and adjuncts to other treatments such as oral immunotherapy. Dr. Vickery explains how these medications work, what they are designed to target within the immune system, and how they may shift the risk-benefit landscape for certain patients.
We also briefly discuss PEACH, a quality of life measurement tool developed to better assess the real-world impact of food allergy on families.
This episode continues our season-long exploration of evolving treatment options, with a focus on clear, balanced information to support informed decision-making.
