Practice points
• GPs can’t prescribe the first dose of an adrenaline injector unless they consult with an allergy specialist or a respiratory physician, or if the patient has gone to hospital and needed adrenalin, but they must also refer them to see an allergy specialist.
• Anyone with a severe allergy really needs to be under the care of an allergy specialist or clinical immunologist.
• Anyone with serious allergic disease that needs management in everyday life should be referred to Allergy and Anaphylaxis Australia.
