How Can Environmental Allergies Be Managed in Neonates?
Managing environmental allergies in neonates involves a combination of strategies:
Avoidance: Identifying and minimizing exposure to known allergens. This might include using air purifiers, frequent cleaning, and avoiding pets. Medications: Antihistamines and nasal corticosteroids may be prescribed, but their use in neonates should be closely monitored by a healthcare provider. Breastfeeding: Exclusive breastfeeding has been shown to reduce the risk of developing allergies. Probiotics: Some evidence suggests that probiotics may help in preventing or managing allergies.
