Exercise-induced anaphylaxis

In severe cases, there is risk of a dramatic fall in blood pressure (anaphylactic shock). The person may become weak and floppy and may have a sense of something terrible happening. This can lead to collapse and unconsciousness.

It is advised to use prescribed adrenaline as soon as a severe reaction is suspected to be occurring. If you are unsure what triggers your allergy, it is preferable not to exercise alone.
