Anaphylaxis: Severe Allergic Reactions Can Kill Within Minutes

Imagine your body is like a castle, and sometimes it mistakenly thinks harmless things like peanuts or bee stings are enemies.

When this happens, your body's defenses go into overdrive, causing a severe allergic reaction called anaphylaxis.

This can happen very quickly, like within minutes!

You might get itchy, have trouble breathing, or feel like you're going to faint.

The most important thing is to get help fast.

Doctors use a special medicine called adrenaline to stop the reaction.

If you know you have allergies, it's very important to avoid your triggers and be prepared for emergencies.
