Paprika Allergy Test

This allergy test uses a blood sample to determine if you are allergic to paprika.

Paprika is a spice made from a blend of finely ground peppers. These peppers may include red bell peppers, green peppers, or jalapeno peppers. Paprika taste can vary from mild to spicy. Many spice blends contain paprika to give food a vibrant red color, so check the ingredient list on red food dishes.

Common paprika allergy symptoms include: 

• Wheezing 
• Dizziness 
• Hives
• Swelling of the throat

Paprika allergy symptoms are frequently mild but severe paprika allergies can result in anaphylaxis, so it is important to get tested if you typically have food allergies. Anaphylaxis is a medical emergency. You should seek help immediately if you have trouble breathing or remaining conscious.
