Abstract
Objective: To report the association of diet with conservative drug response treatment, describing the clinical features of the proposed treatment in patients with suspected Histamine Intolerance (HI). Experience report: This is a follow-up report of patients with suspected HI in an Allergy Clinic in the Midwest region of Brazil. Patients were treated for 3 months, starting from the first medical and nutritional consultation, and followed up during the histamine-restricted diet, which was subdivided into stages and with the final assessment focused on the evolution of symptoms. Final considerations: During the period of evaluation of patients, the histamine-restricted diet played an important role in the clinical improvement of patients with suspected histamine intolerance, with a reduction in symptoms and improvement in quality of life. Despite being a diet with several vestments, being well oriented and carried out by a trained professional, it becomes an accessible measure to be adopted by the patient.
