Your daughter may have some food sensitivities which are triggering her immune reaction.  So, avoidance of common food sensitivities such as wheat, dairy, soy, eggs, chocolate, food additives, citrus, etc. may be helpful.  However, there may be other triggers to her immune reaction.


  Find a trained health care practitioner who will take a thorough history and work with you to identify the cause for her reaction, rather than just give her a prescription medicine to palliate the symptoms--particularly if the prescription drug is not working.
