Appropriate prevention involves ingestion of approximately 2 g of peanut protein weekly for infants at low risk and 4 to 6 g weekly for infants at high risk. Population-level implementation that targets all infants achieves greater reduction in disease burden than approaches that target only high-risk groups, although disparities exist among some ethnic groups and groups with restricted access to care. Peanut immunotherapy initiated in younger children (1 to 3 years of age) shows superior efficacy and higher rates of clinical remission as compared with immunotherapy initiated in older children. The natural history of untreated peanut allergy follows a trajectory of increasing peanut-specific IgE levels and clinical reactivity over time, underscoring the importance of early intervention during this narrow developmental window. aALERGIA aDERMATOLOGÍA aMEDICINA CLINICA aENFERMEDADES INFANTILES aNUTRICIÓN aLack, Gideon 0 022717dMassachusetts NEJM GroupoNEJM006tThe New England Journal of Medicine wESSALUDx0028-4793
