Peanut Allergy Drug Slated for 2018
(CNN) – Peanut allergies are a serious and growing health problem in the Western world, affecting millions of kids and their families.
But a fix could be on the way.
A small French biopharmaceutical company has developed a new product — similar to a nicotine patch — to help allergy sufferers significantly increase their peanut tolerance.
If all goes according to plan, DBV Technologies (DBVT) will begin selling its product to Americans in the first six months of 2018.
