Abstract Background Oral immunotherapy (OIT) is a promising treatment for food allergies. Our aim was to establish the long‐term safety and efficacy of novel red meat (RM) OIT in galactose‐alpha‐1,3‐galactose (alpha‐gal) allergy adults. Methods Out 20 patients with confirmed RM allergy, five (41.66%) underwent an early OIT, seven (58.33%) delayed protocol eight who were not desensitized formed patient control group. 15 27 day early‐onset delayed‐onset alpha‐gal administered, respectively....
