Highlights
  • Food-induced anaphylaxis is a serious disease with a risk of death.
  • We identified 9,079 patients from the Japanese Diagnosis Procedure Combination Database who were admitted for treatment for FIA from April 1, 2014 through March 31, 2017.
  • The most common causative food of FIA among patients aged 0–3, 4–6, 7–19 and ≥ 20 years old was hen’s egg, cow’s milk, peanuts and wheat, respectively.
  • Taking measures to prevent peanut allergies in school is important.
