Yes, Peanut anaphylaxis can kill!
An IGE mediated allergy to any food or medication has the potential to result in a devastating outcome. I would advise you discuss all aspects of your daughter's allergy with her allergist and be prepared/educated on how to not only preventing but also recognizing and treating such reactions.
Unfortunately, yes. Peanut allergy is dangerous. Please consult a qualified provider
