Tolerance Induction Program™ (TIP)
TIP is a safe, effective food allergy treatment that helps children and young adults overcome severe food allergies and achieve Food Freedom — the ability to eat whatever, whenever, without fear of reaction.
What Is TIP?
TIP uses highly customized plans, supervised in-office visits, and regulated at-home dosing to help food allergy patients achieve remission (food freedom), typically within 2.5 -4 years*.
After completing the program, 99% of TIP patients can eat as freely as a non-allergic person. Regardless of pre-existing conditions or the number of food allergies a patient has, TIP can help.
*Treatment duration varies by patient.

Unparalleled Safety

Food Freedom
Most treatments provide "bite-safety" and aim to desensitize patients. TIP patients build lasting tolerance and can eat as freely as a non-allergic person.
How TIP Works
Using extensive patient data, we create safe treatment plans tailored to each patient's unique immune system.
TIP is not an exposure therapy like OIT. With the Tolerance Induction Program™ (TIP), patients build a tolerance to their allergens through the escalation of food proteins similar in structure to their allergens (biosimilar proteins). This means patients can safely desensitize their immune system before they ever begin dosing their allergens.
