Immediate Actions
If you suspect that you've accidentally consumed the Pizza Hut parmesan crusted pepperoni pizza, and you're allergic to one of its ingredients (Wheat, Milk, Soy, Gluten, Cheese, Tomatoes, Pepperoni, Yeast), it is crucial to act quickly and take appropriate action.
Check for Symptoms
Allergy symptoms often appear within minutes to a few hours after eating. Here are some symptoms to look out for:
- Itching or tingling in the mouth
- Hives, itching or eczema
- Swelling of the lips, face, tongue and throat, or other parts of the body
- Wheezing, nasal congestion or trouble breathing
- Abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea or vomiting
- Dizziness, lightheadedness or fainting
If You Develop Mild Symptoms
Take an Antihistamine: Antihistamines can help reduce mild symptoms like itching or a rash. Although they can’t treat severe allergic reactions, they might provide some relief until medical help arrives.
Stay Calm: Meditate, breathe deeply, and stay as calm as possible. Anxiety can exacerbate symptoms.
Alert Others: Let the people around you know you’ve ingested an allergen so they can provide necessary help if your reaction becomes severe.
If You Develop Severe Symptoms
If symptoms like difficulty breathing, vomiting, or dizziness occur:
Administer Epinephrine: If you have an auto-injectable epinephrine device (like an EpiPen), use it immediately. It can help reverse severe allergic reaction symptoms.
Call Local Emergency Services: After administering epinephrine, do call local emergency services immediately. Severe allergic reactions require emergency medical attention, even if symptoms seem to decline after using the EpiPen.
Go to the Emergency Room: Medical personnel will need to observe you for at least a few hours to make sure your symptoms don’t return.
