Stop Eating and Identify the Allergen

If you start experiencing an allergic reaction after eating a serving of Domino's Chicken Taco Pizza, stop eating immediately. Think back to what you've eaten in order to identify the potential allergen. This pizza contains gluten, dairy, soy, wheat, eggs, chicken, and corn as potential allergens.

Seek Medical Help

Depending on the severity of your symptoms, the next step you should take can vary.

• If you are experiencing severe breathing problems, lose consciousness, or begin to turn blue, call your local emergency number immediately. These symptoms could signify anaphylactic shock, a life-threatening situation.

• For mild reactions like itching, hives, or mild swelling, over-the-counter antihistamines could be enough to manage the symptoms. Consult with a doctor, nonetheless.

Allergy Tests

Upon experiencing an allergic reaction, it's important to identify the exact cause for prevention in the future. A skin prick test or a blood test may be suggested by your doctor to confirm what is causing the allergy.

Allergy shots

If you have severe reactions, ongoing issues even after avoiding the allergen, or if the allergen is hard to avoid, your doctor may recommend allergen immunotherapy. It involves giving gradually increasing doses of the substance, or allergen, to which the person is allergic. The incremental increases of the allergen cause the immune system to become less sensitive to the substance, probably by causing the production of a "blocking" antibody, which reduces the symptoms of allergy when the substance is encountered in the future.

Lifestyle Changes

Research on Food Ingredients

It's essential to be constantly aware of what you're eating. This means reading food labels, asking about ingredients in restaurants, and learning to recognize other names that food allergens can be listed as.

Carry Emergency Medication

If diagnosed with an allergen, always have an emergency medical plan that includes carrying epinephrine autoinjectors (EpiPens) at all times.

Check Vaccination Side-Effects

Some vaccinations contain ingredients that might trigger an allergic reaction. Discuss any known allergies with your doctor before vaccination.

Food allergies can be life-altering, but they don't have to impose huge restrictions on your lifestyle. By managing them properly, knowing what to avoid, and by seeking treatment, coping with food allergies can become second nature.
