FIRE ANT ALLERGY "If you have a severe allergy, carry an autoinjectable epinephrine device. Learn how to administer the epinephrine, and replace the device before the labeled expiration date. Epinephrine is a rescue medication only, and you must still go to an emergency room immediately if you are stung. If you have had a serious adverse reaction to a fire ant sting you should be evaluated by an allergist / immunologist. With proper testing, your allergist can diagnose your condition and determine the best form of treatment. Allergy shots (immunotherapy) may be effective long-term treatment for stinging insect allergy. Your allergist will give you shots containing small doses of your allergen, allowing your body to build a natural immunity to the trigger."
