Egg OIT was most cost-effective when started between the ages of 8 and 12. Egg OIT was more cost-effective when a greater number of children achieved remission following treatment. (5/7)

We find that the cost-effectiveness of egg oral immunotherapy (OIT) for children improves as kids get older. This is because younger children have higher rates of naturally outgrowing their egg allergies. (4/7)

Remission means that children can eat the allergen freely without any allergic reactions and stop treatment entirely. Importantly, this research shows that older kids with lower levels of IgE can still benefit from treatment too✅ (2/7)
