How is Histamine Toxicity Diagnosed and Treated?

Histamine toxicity is diagnosed based on clinical symptoms and dietary history. In cases of suspected scombroid poisoning, the presence of histamine in consumed fish can be confirmed through laboratory analysis. Treatment primarily involves antihistamines, which block histamine receptors, alleviating symptoms. Severe cases, such as anaphylaxis, require immediate medical intervention with epinephrine.
