  • eMedicine - Pediatrics, Anaphylaxis : Article by Jeffrey F Linzer, Sr: Corticosteroid s do not have an immediate effect on the symptoms but may help reduce or prevent a biphasic "late phase" reaction. The choice between of methylpredniso lone (IV), prednisone, or prednisolone (PO) 1-2 mg/kg should be based on the patient's presentation and condition. The effect and time of onset are similar. Dose may be repeated at 6-hour intervals as indicated. No published studies compare dexamethasone with other corticosteroid s in the treatment of anaphylaxis. However, based on its use in other allergic conditions, a dose of 0.15-0.6 mg/kg IV would be appropriate.
