Evidence-based treatments, backed by research
Our treatments are evidence-based, meaning they are backed by research and clinical trials involving patients just like your child. As a major pediatric training hospital for UT Southwestern, the physicians who practice here drive advances in pediatric allergy. Your child may qualify for an open clinical trial, so please check back often to learn more about our current research.
Once we have identified your child’s triggers, a wide variety of treatments are available, including anti-IgE therapy to stop IgE immune cells from starting the allergic process.
